Yes, and that behavior is exactly why we deprecate -S ... I don't think
that the autovacuum daemon should emulate it.

This is all moot though since we seem to have a consensus that the
autovac daemon will become a postmaster child in 7.5.  There is
therefore no reason for it to worry about daemonizing itself.
