Yeah, I suspect people will have to manually reapply any changes in
the GUC tables to guc_tables.c.  That'll be the same amount of work
for them whenever we commit this patch (unless theirs lands first,
in which case I have to deal with it).  The issue I think is
whether it's politer to make that happen during a CF or between
CFs.
