a134ee3379 Update documentation on may/can/might: 
Standard English uses "may", "can", and "might" in different ways:

        may - permission, "You may borrow my rake."

        can - ability, "I can lift that log."

        might - possibility, "It might rain today."

Unfortunately, in conversational English, their use is often mixed, as
in, "You may use this variable to do X", when in fact, "can" is a better
choice.  Similarly, "It may crash" is better stated, "It might crash".

Also update two error messages mentioned in the documenation to match.

eaef111396 Define a separately configurable XLOG_BLCKSZ symbol for the page size 
used within WAL files.  Historically this was the same as the data file
BLCKSZ, but there's no necessary connection, and it's possible that
performance gains might ensue from reducing XLOG_BLCKSZ.  In any case
distinguishing two symbols should improve code clarity.  This commit
does not actually change the page size, only provide the infrastructure
to make it possible to do so.  initdb forced because of addition of a
field to pg_control.
Mark Wong, with some help from Simon Riggs and Tom Lane.

26d6054128 That was a typo in my comment before the code (the nutshell 
descriptions after the code are correct). Only shmmax needs to be
multiples of the page size (at least, that's how I interpret the
Darwin code).

8ffdcbf23b Add note that some versions of OS X require SHMMAX to be an exact multiple 
of 4096.  Also add comment explaining why we don't suggest using
/etc/sysctl.conf to avoid needing to edit /etc/rc.

9813fc1bae Make the documentation of GUC variables a separate chapter, rather than 
a section of the "Server Run-time Environment" chapter. Also, move the
SGML for the new chapter to a separate file and fix the resulting
fallout.
