I pushed this just now, backpatching all the way.

I'd like to go with a minimal approach in my patch to address the
remaining issue in amcheck. Something similar to the patch that was
posted as part of v1. While it seems important to address the issue,
making sure that we have coverage of the leftmost page really being
half-dead (as opposed to something that would constitute corruption)
seems much less important. Ideally we'd have exhaustive coverage, but
it's not a priority for me right now.
