Maybe you could look at issues with running `make check` under Valgrind
when server built with CPPFLAGS="-DUSE_VALGRIND -DEXEC_BACKEND":
# +++ regress check in src/test/regress +++
# initializing database system by copying initdb template
# postmaster failed, examine ".../src/test/regress/log/postmaster.log" for the reason
Bail out!make[1]: ***

With memset(param, 0, sizeof(*param)); added at the beginning of
save_backend_variables(), server starts successfully, but then
`make check` fails with other Valgrind error.
