If all we want to do is add a check that prevents two servers to start on

Does it go away automatically on postmaster crash?
Yes.
Then I think it's worth adding, and I'd argue that as a low risk safety
measure we should allow it to sneak into 8.3. I'm assuming the code
involved will be quite small.
