initlocation is up to date, I don't see what could be missing. The only
change to ipcclean was that it now works on Linux, which it never did
before.

I don't think there's a lot to document as it doesn't work at all. See
also separate rant.

Not here:
peter=# create table t2 (x national character(10));
CREATE
peter=# \d t2
Table "t2"
Attribute | Type | Modifier
-----------+----------+----------
x | char(10) |
peter=# insert into t2 values (n'fooz');
ERROR: Unable to locate type name 'n' in catalog
