Fixing this would seem to require teaching pg_ctl how to parse the
postgresql.conf file, which might be worth doing but it's a bit of
a large pain in the neck compared to the benefit ...

(For the record, I never did like the file-location-configuration
patch, and one of the reasons is the havoc it plays with the apparently
simple meaning of the -D switch.)
