I recommend against applying the patch.

First, it is very late in the patch game to be applying an initdb patch.
Second, the original code should work fine, and the top of the file
says #/bin/sh, so we don't need a shell-independent solution.  The rest
of the file uses /bin/sh commands so it will simply not work with
another shell.  I suggest the original user has some problem with their
stderr handling in their OS configuration.
