Of course, as soon as I committed this, I noticed another missing reference
to max_wal_senders in the paragraph about POSIX semaphores. I plan to
commit/back-patch the attached patch within the next couple days.

When using POSIX semaphores, the number of semaphores needed is the
same as for System V, that is one semaphore per allowed connection
(<xref linkend="guc-max-connections"/>), allowed autovacuum worker process
- (<xref linkend="guc-autovacuum-max-workers"/>) and allowed background
+ (<xref linkend="guc-autovacuum-max-workers"/>), allowed WAL sender process
+ (<xref linkend="guc-max-wal-senders"/>), and allowed background
process (<xref linkend="guc-max-worker-processes"/>).
On the platforms where this option is preferred, there is no specific
kernel limit on the number of POSIX semaphores.
