That seems pretty shortsighted.  The field probably ought to be defined
as containing a checksum algorithm ID number, not a boolean.

But having said that, I'm not sure why this would be pg_upgrade's
problem.  By definition, we do not want pg_upgrade running around
looking at individual data pages.  Therefore, whatever we might do
about checksum algorithm changes would have to be something that can be
managed on-the-fly by the newer server.
