In principle, we could have the postmaster run through $PGDATA/pg_tblspc
and drop a lockfile into each referenced directory. But the devil is in
the details --- in particular, not sure how to get the right thing to
happen during a CREATE TABLESPACE. Also, I kinda doubt that this is going
to fix anything for the replica-on-same-machine problem.
