After some trouble with his mail (MIME-format, charset=X-UNKNOWN, even the last one)
we could see this message in the knldiag:

Server should not run as superuser

The message seen above should be read as
Server may not run as superuser

The database was created by superuser.
This is NOT allowed.
It has to be a 'normal' user. 

With one of the next versions this restriction will not exist any more,
but with 7.3.0.25 superuser is a really bad choice for creation of a database.
This has nothing to do with LONGs or any other SQl-statement.
