Perhaps we need to put these flags in a record on startup. If they're
not set on the checkpoint you start at you check if the next record is
a shutdown and it starts up with the flags set.
I'm not sure that's exactly right as I've never looked at the wal
sequence on shutdown and startup. But it seems like a problem if you
want to start replication, find that archive_mode needs to be set so
you restart your database with it set but then still can't start up
the slave until a checkpoint happens on the master.
