Tom Lane c670410e7f Move the responsibility for calling StartupXLOG into InitPostgres, for
those process types that go through InitPostgres; in particular, bootstrap
and standalone-backend cases.  This ensures that we have set up a PGPROC
and done some other basic initialization steps (corresponding to the
if (IsUnderPostmaster) block in AuxiliaryProcessMain) before we attempt to
run WAL recovery in a standalone backend.  As was discovered last September,
this is necessary for some corner-case code paths during WAL recovery,
particularly end-of-WAL cleanup.

Moving the bootstrap case here too is not necessary for correctness, but it
seems like a good idea since it reduces the number of distinct code paths.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================
  
This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Changes between all PostgreSQL releases are recorded in the
file HISTORY.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
http://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
