On the reference pages ---

I think the thing you were missing is that for pg_ctl, -o means "here
are some switches to give to the postmaster", but for the postmaster
-o means "here are some switches to give to postgres (ie, the backends
the postmaster spawns)". So the switches following -o have different
meanings.
