.../pgsql/data !?
I don't know who blown it, but I have:

dir /var/lib/pgsql mode 755 (now 700 changed by me, hope
I'm not breaking something)

dir /var/lib/pgsql/base mode 700 (there is no one file here,
just db-directories)

files /var/lib/pgsql/pg_* mode 600 or 400 except pg_pwd :(

wich seem pretty logical except the mode of pg_pwd
(and the _clear_ passwds inside)
(and that "base" should be called "data" :)
