Yeah, I don't think that it is something worth bothering either. As you mentioned the data folder would be removed by default. Or perhaps the reporter has another case in mind which could justify a change in the signal handlers? I am ready to hear that case, but there is nothing about the reason why it could be a benefit. The patch proposed upthread is not something I find correct anyway, I'd rather have the abort path complain loudly about a bootstrap transaction that fails instead of just ignoring it, because it is the kind of transaction which must never fail. And it seems to me that it can be handy for development purposes. -- Michael
