I don't think we want random Perl code running inside the postmaster,
no matter what the API to cause it is.  I might hold my nose for "on
load" code if it can only run in backends, though I still say that
it's a badly designed concept because of the uncertainty about who
will run what when.  Shlib load time is not an event that ought to be
user-visible.
