Yeah, the assertion shows there's no problem, but we should change it
to 4 (and one day we should make it dynamic and change udata to hold
an index instead of a pointer...) or, since it's a bit silly to add
both of those events, maybe we should do:

- if ((wakeEvents & WL_POSTMASTER_DEATH) && IsUnderPostmaster)
- AddWaitEventToSet(set, WL_POSTMASTER_DEATH, PGINVALID_SOCKET,
- NULL, NULL);
-
if ((wakeEvents & WL_EXIT_ON_PM_DEATH) && IsUnderPostmaster)
AddWaitEventToSet(set, WL_EXIT_ON_PM_DEATH, PGINVALID_SOCKET,
NULL, NULL);
+ else if ((wakeEvents & WL_POSTMASTER_DEATH) && IsUnderPostmaster)
+ AddWaitEventToSet(set, WL_POSTMASTER_DEATH, PGINVALID_SOCKET,
+
