Hello,

is there a way to move the postmaster.pid file
completely out of the PGDATA directory ?

Setting the external_pid_file option in postgres.conf would only
create a second file.

Background: we would like to start a postmaster instance on a readonly
directory
to enable a server for readonly operations (SELECT) only.
