Hi Florian,

You are indeed correct.  Setting nointr also resolves my issue.  I could swear 
I checked this, but obviously not.

It does still concern me that pgsql did not deal with this as gracefully as 
other software.  I hope the list will consider a patch to resolve that.

Thanks in advance,

George
