I agree. Mind you, I think we should discourage use of -S, because it
makes troubleshooting so much more difficult. But we shouldn't remove
the option; people who are running a stable application mix and not
having problems may well think they don't need to expend disk space on
a postmaster log. And if we have the option then it ought to be
supported uniformly via GUC.
