      Arrange for the postmaster (and standalone backends, initdb, etc) to · eb5949d1
      Tom Lane authored 
      chdir into PGDATA and subsequently use relative paths instead of absolute
paths to access all files under PGDATA.  This seems to give a small

against naive DBAs doing things like moving a database directory that
has a live postmaster in it.  Per recent discussion.
