See code:

            /*
             * Ideally we should only warn if this checkpoint was
             * requested due to running out of segment files, and not
             * if it was manually requested.  However we can't tell the
             * difference with the current signalling mechanism.
             */

I could argue that a client-driven process that issues CHECKPOINT every
few seconds is equally deserving of a warning.  The only thing wrong is
that the HINT is inapplicable ... but that's why it's a HINT and not
part of the main message.
