I'm not sure that pg_ctl is bright enough to handle multiple -o options.
You might need -o "-N 40 -B 80" instead.
Having said that, though, I think there is little or no good use for -o
in the first place. It's better to set the values you want in
postgresql.conf.
BTW, -B 80 is ridiculously low. It may run, but performance will be
terrible.
