On Linux postmaster creates the file /tmp/.s.PGSQL.5432, a named pipe (???)
that it uses for IPC I believe. The 5432 is whatever port you have
postgres listening on.
Anyway, I remove that file if it exists before starting postmaster, an that
takes care of the message you pasted.
I also kill any running "postgres" processes, since they cause postmaster to
hang as well sometimes.
