Another updated patch. Fixed bitrot, and addressed the privilege issue
Fujii-san raised here:
http://archives.postgresql.org/message-id/4D380560.3040400@enterprisedb.com.
I changed the privilege checks so that pg_start/stop_backup() functions
require superuser privileges again, but not for a base backup via the
replication protocol (replication privilege is needed to establish a
replication connection to begin with).
