Initscripts aren't configuration files so RPM will "repair" any "damage" 
you've done to them by editing them when the next update comes along.

I don't use postgresql myself, but from looking at the initscript in 
cvs, I'd guess that putting the PGOPTS setting into 
/etc/sysconfig/pgsql/postgresql would probably do what you want.
