Huh, that's even more interesting.
Looking at the code, what ServerLoop actually does when it notices that
the postmaster.pid file has been removed is
kill(MyProcPid, SIGQUIT);
So if our hypothesis is that pselect() failed to unblock signals,
then failure to quit is easily explained: the postmaster never
received/acted on its own signal. But that should have left you
with a running postmaster holding the shared memory and semaphores.
Seems like if it is gone but it failed to remove those, somebody must've
kill -9'd it ... but who? I see nothing in the buildfarm script that
would.
