下記の環境で PostgreSQL 8.4.17 をビルドすると、

# cat /etc/redhat-release
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 7.1 (Maipo)

# rpm -q gcc
gcc-4.8.3-9.el7.x86_64

initdb コマンドでエラーが発生。

# su - postgres -c "/usr/local/pgsql-8.4.17/bin/initdb -E UTF8 --no-locale -D ./data" ; echo $?
The files belonging to this database system will be owned by user "postgres".
This user must also own the server process.

The database cluster will be initialized with locale C.
The default text search configuration will be set to "english".

調べると、GCC 4.8 で発生するらしい。
