Comment:

 The very first time you install any of the postgres''XY''-server ports,
 they create the postgres user account and set its home directory to a path
 that includes that postgres version number. For example, if
 postgres94-server was the first of those ports that you ever installed,
 the postgres user would have been created with its home directory set to
 /opt/local/var/db/postgresql94.

 I'm not sure what the correct solution is in MacPorts, but you may be able
 to work around the problem by editing the postgres user (with `dscl`) to
 change its NFSHomeDirectory to the one you want it to use (e.g. the one
 for postgresql96).

 This ticket might be considered a duplicate of #24180.
