Is there any stronger medicine that's available (for instance, when a
backend won't respond to SIGTERM) and has no unfortunate side effects?
I just ran into this situation the other day (and made the unfortunate
discovery that SIGABRT is as bad as SIGKILL as far as a postmaster is
concerned).

Does anyone know a safe way to shutdown just one backend
Sending it a SIGTERM via kill(1) should be safe.
