Is there any reason to worry about an accidental environment conflict?
If someone mistakenly did "export PG_RESTRICT_EXEC=1", it looks to me
like this would cause the re-exec bit to be skipped, but I suppose the
worst possible consequence is that the postmaster would refuse to start.
Is there anything I don't see? (Of course, the magic argument method
can be broken manually in just the same way...)
Yes. The effect would be that we just do exactly what we do today
anyway. We could make the value some more obscure token, but I don't
see much point.
