fd.c[1] will remove files from pgsql_tmp on a restart but not a

I understand that this is designed this way. I think it is a bad idea
because:
Possible compromise: remove files only in non-Assert builds?
Oh, that seems absolutely reasonable. If we are using assert builds it
is because we are debugging something (or should be) anyway.
