So what is the thinking of HACKERS?
Does it make sense to include nothing and rather allow each distribution to support its own?
Or should each distribution known to support postgres be invited to submit the relevant script for inclusion? And, if so, should this be a HACKERS [or other appropriate group/individual]-led effort?
I'm persisting just because no conclusive action was recommended, and I think this is a mildly important usability issue. I don't know whether altering this piece of contrib is something that would be relevant for 8.0...

Why not just include the Debian start script instead of asking to user to fix up the existing one?
I agree. I wrote that start-script a long time ago when there was not a very good one at all for Linux. Since then, the package maintainers for the various distributions have filled that void, making my script obsolete. TTYL.
