Anybody know *why* Gentoo does such a thing? Having shared buffers at

the normal way to set these things would be in postgresql.conf, why
override them on the commandline?
It's not the first time I've seen people complain about this, it'd be
good to know why.
It's been brought up on the Gentoo bugzilla
(http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=206725), so hopefully something
will come of that.
Those are not comments on the actual patch, of course. For that one,
it looks to me like it's the wrong fix. I don't think we should be
adding to shared buffers like that - if somebody asked for a specific
value they should get that. But in that case the error message needs
to be changed, since it's misleading.
If we follow that logic, there shouldn't be an error message at all. ;-)
Cheers,
Andreas
