Yeah, plan B would be to force the stats processes to die and be reborn
along with the backends. However that seems like a much larger
behavioral change than just detaching them from the shared memory.
If we ever need the stats collector to be able to access shared memory,
we'd need to do it that way; for now I'll take the simpler solution.

Will do.
