No. Check http://archives.postgresql.org/message-id/20131120234141.GI18801%40awork2.anarazel.de The problem is starting with hot_standby=on on a system with recovery.conf present. It is independent of whether you use streaming replication, archive based recovery, or just shutdown the server and manually copy xlog segments there. As long as hot_standby=on, and recovery.conf is present you can hit the bug.
