Fwiw this concerns me slightly. I'm sure a lot of people are doing
things like "kill -HUP `cat .../postmaster.pid`" or the equivalent.

postmaster.pid already contains considerably more than just the pid. e.g.
4071
/srv/dev/pgdev-master
1425396089
5440
/tmp
localhost
   5440001  82345992

If we already have all this extra stuff, why not include an actual error message then, or at least the first line of an error (or maybe just swap any newlines with spaces)?
