Apropos of this: I notice that commit 57431a911 is already relying
on PGSharedMemoryDetach to do the "right thing" here, because that
gets called in the non-EXEC_BACKEND code path, cf SysLogger_Start:

            /* Drop our connection to postmaster's shared memory, as well */
            dsm_detach_all();
            PGSharedMemoryDetach();

I'm also not too happy that this comment doesn't mention the fact that
we'd (now) only be attached to shmem in the case of a postmaster restart.

BTW, it looks to me like dsm_detach_all doesn't get called anywhere in
the EXEC_BACKEND case, which seems like a separate bug.
