As I recall, other than the postmaster startup interlock, the other
major missing item you mentioned is SA_RESTART. That could well turn
out to be a showstopper, so I suggest you study that in more depth.

Are there other major items missing? Did you have to use
configure --disable-spinlocks for instance?

What's your compiler, and what are the underlying hardware platforms you
want to support?
