Asking for help to address the FreeBSD performance would have

That is exactly what I did, I asked for a version of postgresql that
was easy to switch at runtime between two behaviors.
That would make it a LOT easier to run a few scripts and make sure I
got the correct binary without having to munge PREFIX and a bunch of
PATH and other tools to get my test harness to DTRT.
I'm sure one of the hackers would be happy to provide you with a patch
to help you with your testing.
That would be fine.
That's quite a different thing from asking for a GUC to be provided and
then supported over the next 5 years as part of the core release, which
is what I believe we all thought you were asking for.
I did not know that GUCs were not classified into
"experimental/non-experimental". The fact that a single GUC would need
to be supported for 5 years is definitely something to consider. Now I
understand the push back a little more.
