It's the same directory as the postgresql binaries, and they all have
sane
permissions. (root:root, 755). Ls finds it, more finds it but
complains
as it's a binary. (all run as the postgres user)

The only think that I can think is that somehow the shell is
considering it
a corrupted shebang, and can't fine the corrupted path to execute.

I've pulled in the packaged 8.3 binaries for this distro, and it appears
that the pg_standby in that package is working properly.

thanks,
