initdb core dump

Hello,

I am attempting to install PostgreSQL 7.3.1 for the first time on a Redhat
7.1 Linux box.

I'm getting a core dump when I do the following. Any suggestions for things
I should be checking, or is this a bug?

Thanks,
Jason

The files belonging to this database system will be owned by user
"postgres".
This user must also own the server process.

The database cluster will be initialized with locale en_US.
This locale setting will prevent the use of indexes for pattern matching
operations. If that is a concern, rerun initdb with the collation order set
to "C". For more information see the Administrator's Guide.
