OK, can you go through the reasons why pg_stop_backup would not complete? And why it's a problem to have it complete? I'll admit to not understanding them; it seems to me that pg_stop_backup should just immediately force a checkpoint and a log write, but you're obviously trying to prevent something with the current behavior.
