I don't think that's ok. The postmaster is the one that should be in
control, not some subprocess.

I fail to see the win in simplicity over using exit (like we already do
for the normal end of recovery!) is. The issue with the log line seems
perfectly easily to avoid by just checking the exit code in
postmaster.c.
