I put something into the docs last night in the places where configure
and postmaster switches are described.

I am thinking, though, that we also ought to have FAQ entries under
headings like:

I get "IpcSemaphoreCreate: semget failed (No space left on device)"
when I try to start the postmaster

I get 'Sorry, too many clients already' when trying to connect

If you like, I'll try to write up a first cut at these.
