On second read of this comment:
http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-hackers/2009-05/msg01128.php

it says "reduce the frequency of serialization anomalies", which doesn't
necessarily mean that it makes new guarantees, I suppose. I should have
gone to the original source.

Anyway, it's a moot point, because apparently that's just a possible
step along the way toward true serializability, and doesn't need to be
separately distinguished.
