Nor will that work for prepared xacts --- you don't want to wait for the

PREPARE TRANSACTION wouldn't set the flag in MyProc; there's no clog changes to protect from at that point. It would be set in RecordTransactionCommitPrepared when we're really committing. Just like we use the CheckpointStartLock today.

Indeed --- you'd better take another look at where we use the
CheckpointStartLock today.

Yeah, while writing the patch I noticed that we really do use it in EndPrepare to avoid a similar race condition with the twophase state file..
