Sorry about that.  The release notes are made based on commit-log
entries.  In this case we had

Author: Bruce Momjian <bruce@momjian.us>
Branch: master [acdb8c225] 2012-12-10 23:03:25 -0500
Branch: REL9_2_STABLE [35fb1434b] 2012-12-10 23:03:28 -0500
   Fix pg_upgrade -O/-o options      Fix previous commit that added synchronous_commit=off, but broke -O/-o   due to
missingspace in argument passing.      Backpatch to 9.2.
 

so it was Bruce's error not to credit you in the commit message.
I know that he knows better --- it is project policy to properly credit
patch authors.  But mistakes do happen, of course.  Again, my apologies
on behalf of the project.
        regards, tom lane
