Subject: Re: [HACKERS] Why use " != "
It done so, because InitProcess() is supposed to be called only
once per backend, because it allocates a PGPROC from a LIST OF free
PGPROCs.
So with this test, and calling elog( ERROR, ... ) we are stopping
the caller from doing a second initialization for this backend.
