Patch committed.  There are still some loose ends to clean up:

* I need to finish making an xlog-reset utility for contrib.

* I stubbed out shmctl(IPC_STAT) in the BeOS and QNX4 emulations of
  SysV shared memory (src/backend/port/beos/shm.c,
  src/backend/port/qnx4/shm.c).  This means that the new code to detect
  postmaster-dead-but-old-backends-still-running will never detect any
  problem on those platforms.  Perhaps people who use those platforms
  can test and contribute real implementations?

However, these shouldn't affect testing.

                        regards, tom lane
