That's right. If a database with user-specified OID exists, the
createdb fails with a "duplicate key value" error.
If just a data directory with user-specified OID exists,
MakePGDirectory() fails to create the directory and the cleanup
callback createdb_failure_callback() removes the directory that was
not created by 'createdb()' function.
The subsequent create database call with the same OID will succeed.
Should we handle the case where a data directory exists and the
corresponding DB with that oid does not exist? I presume this
situation doesn't arise unless the user tries to create directories in
the data path. Any thoughts?
