Meh.  It seems clear to me that we should move the "database system is
shut down" message so that it comes out only after the postmaster has
removed its lockfiles (and hence is really gone so far as any outside
vantage point is concerned).  But I do not think any of the rest of
what I put in has any lasting value.
