I have tried to build and install postgres 4.2 on sparc 10's running
	4.1.3 on several occasions with varying degrees of success.

In each case, initdb completes successfully. In each case when
	postmaster is run it core dumps. In each case if I run postmaster
	by specifying its full path length, postmaster will run. 

In most cases when I attempt to run createdb, I am given an error
	message stating that the database model template1 does not exist
	(even though initdb completed without complaint). Running
	createuser has essentially the same effect. The case in which I
	was able to successfully run createuser and createdb was on a
	machine I did not have root access on, hence I had to set the
	variables BINGRP, BINOWN, LIBGRP, LIBOWN, MANGRP, and MANOWN.

Has anyone had similar problems? I suspect my next step may be to try
	building postgres with the aforementioned variables set to
	postgres.
