Given that you can turn off the stats after startup, the above seems
fairly useless.
If we want to be nanny-ish about this, we should implement an interlock
that forces the stats settings on permanently if autovac is enabled.
(However, past experience with trying to force interrelationships of GUC
variables hasn't been too positive...)
