How is this a critical parameter (more critical than, say, > fsync enable)? I don't think 'fsync enable' is a critical parameter. It's a dangerous parameter and it's not appropriate as a GUC paramter either. Does it have any meaning other than testing ? IMHO recovery system doesn't allow any optimism and archdir is also a part of recovery system though I'm not sure how critical the parameter would be.
