Noah Misch d41cb869aa Ignore interrupts during quickdie().
Once the administrator has called for an immediate shutdown or a backend
crash has triggered a reinitialization, no mere SIGINT or SIGTERM should
change that course.  Such derailment remains possible when the signal
arrives before quickdie() blocks signals.  That being a narrow race
affecting most PostgreSQL signal handlers in some way, leave it for
another patch.  Back-patch this to all supported versions.

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:

	http://www.postgresql.org/download

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/.
