The crash people are getting in initdb is due to the 1.19 revision to

Re: win32 crash in initdb - it has still problems.

initdb debug messages are here.

creating template1 database in data/base/1 ... LOG: could not open directory "/
share/timezone": No such file or directory
LOG: unable to determine system timezone, defaulting to "GMT"
HINT: You can specify the correct timezone in postgresql.conf.
FATAL: could not select a suitable default timezone

LOG: could not open directory "/share/timezone": No such file or directory
This message is due to my_exec_path is empty. I don't know where this variable set.

another problem,
localizational time zone name (%Z of localtime()) and server time zone name of pg_localtime() are different in CJK OS. (ex. 대한민국 표준시 vis KST)

Unfortunate behavior when probing pre-1970 dates, maybe?
