How exactly could it "close and reopen" them without losing their
identity? And what makes /dev/null necessarily the right substitute?
I don't think we should change this within Postgres. We removed logic
associated with daemonization altogether in 9.2 --- it's the
responsibility of the calling script to close any files it doesn't want
left open.
