If recovery.done is present in data folder with recovery.conf at the moment of promotion, recovery.done is removed before file renaming. What you can do to use a trigger file for promotion is setting up trigger_file in recovery.conf, then promotion will be kicked once file has been created.
I believe I know what my mistake is: I set trigger_file to /var/lib/postgresql/9.1/main/recovery.done -- and PostgreSQL doesn't seem to like that name. I should set to another name and retry.
It's still strange that pg_ctl promote didn't work though. Maybe because recovery.done existed at the time I tried.
I'll try again today, with better names.
Thanks!
