Log Message:
-----------
Remove initdb's rather gratuitous check to see if the backend created a
flat password file, because it never will anymore. We had managed to
miss this during the recent flat-file-ectomy because it only happens if
--pwfile or --pwprompt is specified to initdb. Apparently, few hackers
use those. Reported by Erik Rijkers.
