Even if it is running you should get something. I get:
root@box:~# /etc/init.d/postgresql-8.3 start
Starting PostgreSQL 8.3 database server: main.
And if the file doesn't exist, well you get the usual:
/etc/init.d/postgresql-8.3: No such file or directory
So the OP should read thru that file, and see what is going on.
i.e. there is:
[ -r /usr/share/postgresql-common/init.d-functions ] || exit
It doesn't seem to be a "stock" install.
Disclaimer: I'm running Lenny, don't know status of Sid.
but http://bugs.debian.org/postgresql doesn't cast any light.

On lenny I get (maybe handy for comparison.)
