The original bug report states the problem as being that the archiver
stays for a noticeable period after postmaster shutdown. My patch fixes
that very safely.
It doesn't fix your request for redesign, which I accept is still

I don't see any reason to leave the original problem hanging just
because the fix isn't as wide as we might really like.
