I am not completely sure what you mean here. We've never supported
load_session_libraries for background workers, and I'm not quite sure
that there is a case for it. FWIW, my idea around that would be to
have two separate sets of flags: one set for the bgworkers and one set
for PostgresInit() as an effect of load_session_libraries which looks
like a fuzzy concept for bgworkers.
