Like Andres, I am a bit disappointed that this stuff is not reducing
the amount of diff code with ifdef FRONTEND in src/common/.  This
actually adds more complexity than the original code in a couple of
places, like this one which is less than nice:
+#ifndef FRONTEND
+#define pg_log_warning(...) elog(WARNING, __VA_ARGS__)
+#else
+#include "fe_utils/logging.h"
+#endif
