10.8.5 supplemental & server 2.2 breaks postgres/caldavd?

Question

caldavd fails because postgres is failing to start.  Best I can tell is there are two startup scripts for postgres.  com.apple.postgress.plist has launchd start a postgres on the socket specified in:
/Library/Server/PostgreSQL For Server Services/Socket
whilst org.postgresql.postgres.plist has launchd start a postgres on the socket specified in:
/private/var/pgsql_socket
The latter is started but the former fails (postgres exists with code 1 and launchd throttles for a 10 second retry).
I notice caldavd's error log:
2013-10-08 09:09:18-0700 [-] Re-trying connection due to connection failure
          Traceback (most recent call last):

          pg.InternalError: could not connect to server: No such file or directory
                    Is the server running locally and accepting
                    connections on Unix domain socket "/Library/Server/PostgreSQL For Server Services/Socket/.s.PGSQL.5432"?
which is failing because there is no active unix socket because postgres fails.  I tried downloading the 10.8.5 combo update and installing with no change of behavior.
Anyone got any ideas?

The following is in the logs but I note the date earlier than my 10.5.8 supplemental / Server 2.2.2 update.

The PDT times should be 7 hours behind the Zulu timestamps so I think the postgres log errors occured before the first update -- perhaps they are innocuous.  There are no further entries past the 7:29:08 timestamp in the PostgreSQL_Server_Services.log file, which seems strange.
