   I tested the following way:

1. Run postmaster without parameters; connect and run VACUUM ANALYZE -
worked.

2. Run postmaster -b -D/usr/local/pgsql/data -o -Fe
   and run VACUUM ANALYZE - worked

3. Run postmaster -b -D/usr/local/pgsql/data -o -Fe -S (to detach it)
   and run VACUUM ANALYZE - worked

   (I took these parameters from script /etc/init.d/postgres)

4. Run /etc/init.d/postgres start
   and run VACUUM ANALYZE - failed, no core file.
