Hm, there's an interest in backpatching this as a bugfix, if I
understand correctly; hence the duplicated code. We could remove the
duplicity later with a refactoring patch in master only.

However, now that you mention a pg_control flag, it becomes evident to
me that a change to pg_control cannot be back-patched ...
