Thanks for testing.
This crash has nothing to do with HS or SR. There is already a
documented caveat and this has been like this for 6 years
http://developer.postgresql.org/pgdocs/postgres/continuous-archiving.html#CONTINUOUS-ARCHIVING-CAVEATS
If you said the docs need some work, I would agree with you. There isn't
anything to say that the caveats in 24.3.6 still apply to SR, though
they still all do.
