This is a Linux Kernel for SPARC (Debian) that came with the distribution
(no recompile done yet here).
As far as I can tell, SEMVMX isn't readable or writable via /proc or
sysctl in Linux at all; at least it is not visible in my Red Hat 8.0
installation. So it's really hard to see why it'd be different in
your installation than everywhere else.
Just to make sure we're barking up the right tree, would you see whether
it helps to change this line in src/backend/port/sysv_sema.c:
#define PGSemaMagic 537 /* must be less than SEMVMX */
Try making it 100 or so instead of 537.
Same problem. Changed it and I got this:

This user must also own the server process.
The database cluster will be initialized with locale C.

Now the interesting part of all this is that, with all the initdb that failed,
lots of semaphores where been used, so when I tried this last initdb at first
I got this, which looks like I'm out of semaphores, not as in the message
from above:

DETAIL: Failed system call was semget(129, 17, 03600).
HINT: This error does *not* mean that you have run out of disk space.
It occurs when either the system limit for the maximum number of
semaphore sets (SEMMNI), or the system wide maximum number of semaphores
(SEMMNS), would be exceeded. You need to raise the respective kernel
parameter. Alternatively, reduce PostgreSQL's consumption of semaphores by
reducing its max_connections parameter (currently 10).
The PostgreSQL documentation contains more information about
configuring your system for PostgreSQL.
