You're right - we need the copy in the postmaster (to setup shared
memory and LW locks), and we need them in the backends too. I just want
to avoid having to set both shared_preload_libraries and
local_preload_libraries (to the same thing). Adding a call to
process_shared_preload_libraries() in SubPostmasterMain() seems to fix
the problem for me.
Thanks for your input. I'll submit a patch.
