Heikki Linnakangas 8fd733bd19 Disable pg_standby -l option because the backend doesn't expect the recovered
file to be a symlink. We tried to fix this issue with an earlier server-side
patch, but it didn't fix the whole issue.

The same bug is present in older releases as well, but the 8.4 train is
about to leave the station, and I'm not sure if have consensus on whether
we can remove the -l option in back-branches or do we need to attempt a
server-side fix to make symlinking safe.

Patch by Simon Riggs, per discussion on bug identified by Fujii Masao.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================
  
This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Changes between all PostgreSQL releases are recorded in the
file HISTORY.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
http://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
