This is very very strange. The postmaster error says that your locale
library will not take pt_BR as a valid value for LC_MESSAGES. But if
you are able to initdb with that same setting then it would seem that
pt_BR *is* a valid setting for LC_MESSAGES. Are you sure that the
installed $PGINSTDIR/share/postgresql.conf.sample (which is what initdb
will use) also has lc_messages set to pt_BR?
