I am also wondering if setting it in InitAuxiliaryProcess is redundant (or rather, whether the extra set in each auxiliary process is redundant with the call in InitAuxiliaryProcess).
Well, it's set right at the front of SubPostmasterMain, immediately after setting MyProcPid. Is that enough to catch every path? I think it's a better place than InitAuxiliaryProcess, because at that stage no logging can have taken place. Maybe we just need to remove the other special cases ... I'll take another look.
