This message is coming out of the new "dynamic shared memory" code. I'm not real sure why that's being invoked at startup; perhaps Robert Haas can elucidate. Anyway the short answer is that this sounds like a portability hazard in the new code in src/backend/storage/ipc/dsm_impl.c. Perhaps you can look into that and identify what's up. regards, tom lane
