I don't think so--I'm skeptical that "updated shared_preload_libraries
first, then install them" is much more than a theoretical use case. We
may not want to block that off completely, but I think a warning is
reasonable here, because you're *probably* doing something wrong if
you get to this message at all (and if you're not, you're probably
familiar enough with Postgres to know to ignore the warning).
