This is an interesting patch idea. One problem with the patch is that
create_tablespace_directories() is called both during recovery and when
creating a tablespace, and the hint only makes sense in the first case.
The attached patch shows the hint only during recovery. Unless there
are objections, I will apply this for 9.0. I do think people will be
hit by this more often in 9.0.
