Hi,

While looking at GUC messages today I noticed the following:

gettext_noop("The server will use the fsync() system call in several
places to make "
"sure that updates are physically written to disk. This insures "
"that a database cluster will recover to a consistent state after "
"an operating system or hardware crash.")

~

I believe the word should have been "ensures"; not "insures".

In passing I found/fixed a bunch of similar misuses in comments.

======
Kind Regards,
Peter Smith.
