I finally got around to looking at this. Neither <err.h> nor err()
are portable (they're not in the Single Unix Spec, and they don't
work here...). The intent seems moderately clear, but please replace
those calls with something portable.

Otherwise, I think the only thing standing in the way of committing this
as a contrib module is that we'll need some user-facing documentation,
preferably in the form of an SGML file. (We'd also need a Makefile
of course, but that's pretty dang trivial. See pg_standby's files
if you need a sample to work from.)

regards, tom lane
