I think you're getting bit by a standard beginner gotcha: commenting out an entry in postgresql.conf will not change the state of a running postmaster. (A comment is a no-op, eh?) You need to put in a non-comment entry that sets the desired state.
This was indeed the case. I thought I had tried placing the values back without commenting the lines out, but apparently not. Thanks for your help!
