FAQ item 3.2 says:
   
    3.2) When I start the postmaster, I get a Bad System Call or core dumped
    message. Why?
    
   It could be a variety of problems, but first check to see that you
   have System V extensions installed in your kernel. PostgreSQL requires
   kernel support for shared memory and semaphores.

If that's not it, you could probe further by building with debug support
and then using a debugger to see where the initdb run dumps core.

                        regards, tom lane
