I don't understand the fuzziness of the patch around recovery.conf.
Why would that be required knowing that pg_createsubscriber only
supports the same major version as the target server?  We have dropped
support for recovery.conf a long time ago, and this includes all
stable branches.

FWIW, based on the concerns I'm grabbing, nothing presented on this
thread would be candidate material for a backpatch.  Just mentioning
in passing.
