Should have explained my reasoning behind my previous questions. They
are motivated by a hunch that the shutdown procedure is not cleanly
stopping Postgres and that on start up there is a collision with
detritus left over from the shutdown. So the idea is to look at the tail
of the logs on the shutdown side for clues. Would not hurt to look at
the head of the same logs on start up to see if there are any complaints
before the server process exits.
