I'm getting the following error when trying to initdb with CVS tip. This
is on win XP, though I don't know if it's win32 specific. Also of note,
although it says it's clearing the contents of the directory, in actual
fact it leaves the directory structure in place, thus a subsequent
initdb will not run without a manual clearup.
Regards, Dave.
$ initdb
The files belonging to this database system will be owned by user
