Yep, I think that it will have enough information by adding additional
information of WIP patch.

Sorry for confusing you.
Anyway I meant that I got SEGV after applied WIP patch, and the cause
is the above changes.
The case is following.
1. Add "port = 6543" to postgresql.conf and restart server.
2. Remove that added line from postgresql.conf
3. Reload.
Got SEGV.
