Well, someone or something did, because stdmsg isn't ever a legal
value, and it didn't put itself into that file.

This would seem to indicate that either the permissions on the
PostgreSQL data directory have been changed, or you're trying to start
PostgreSQL under the wrong user account.

I would suggest that you post to a different mailing list, such as
pgsql-novice or pgsql-general.  This mailing list is for bug reports,
and it doesn't sound to me like there's a bug here.  I would start by
setting log_destination = eventlog - since stdmsg is definitely not
going to work - and then ask for help on one of those mailing lists
fixing your permissions problem.
