Note that if you perform the backup step when the system is quiet then 
there is typically no problem with the standby - it is only when the 
backup coincides with any level of activity that you can elicit the 
previously mentioned problems.

Obviously the case I have included in the first mail shows up the 
problem immediately, but in fact it is reasonably hard to trigger and I 
spent quite a while getting to the state of being able to trigger the 
uninitialized pages on demand.

While Pitrtools it is a wrapper,  the use of "--exclude=backup_label" is 
incorrect and needs to be removed.
