I came up with the attached patch, which sets a checksum_failure
variable in both basebackup.c and pg_basebackup.c, and emits an ereport
with (for now) ERRCODE_DATA_CORRUPTED at the end of
perform_base_backup(), which gets caught in pg_basebackup and then used
to not cleanup the datadir, but exit with a non-zero exit code.
Does that seem feasible?
