Yeah, I see.  But I do not want it to bind to network socket.  I want it to
bind to a unix domain socket  _only_.

While all other postgres commands accept an absolute path as port
specification, meaning to use a unix domain socket, pg_ctl seems to behave
differently.

e.g: I can start postgres on a unix domain socket _only_ with following
parameters:

   postgres -D /some/path/pgtest -h '' -k /some/path/pgtest

But pg_ctl don't seem to have an option to do the same.
