I am happy to have pg_upgrade skip upgrading visibility map files --- it
already has code to conditionally process them because they only exist
in >= 8.4:
/* fsm/vm files added in PG 8.4 */ if (GET_MAJOR_VERSION(old_cluster.major_version) >= 804) {
/* * Copy/link any fsm and vm files, if they exist */
Just give the word and it will be done.
