Thanks Ken. The more I think about it, the more I feel we should move
away from upstream, and pull the latest version for this.

So on with newer versions -
When using the built-in systems for warm standby, how do I ensure that
the latest transactions have been archived? Does a clean shutdown
flush and archive the WAL within the archive_timeout period?

Thanks
