8.3RC1 on windows missing descriptive Event handle names

On Windows XP, using Process Explorer with the lower pane showing Handles, not all postgres.exe processes are including an "Event" type with a description of what the process is doing.

At the moment, I have ten postgres processes shown as being at the bottom of the tree, three of which do not have such descriptions.

The processes that do show an Event type handle show these names:

\BaseNamedObjects\pgident: postgres: wal writer process
\BaseNamedObjects\pgident: postgres: autovacuum launcher process

plus one per connection like:

\BaseNamedObjects\pgident: postgres: postgres mydatabase 127.0.0.1(1954) idle

Comparing the list of processes to those of 8.2, I suspect that the processes missing this detail are the log writer (one of the processes does have a File Handle on the log file), and the stats collector.

I have autovacuum enabled for 8.3rc1, and disabled for 8.2.

PostgreSQL is started as a service.
