[ Checks code... ]  No, statement_timeout only applies to commands
arriving from an interactive client.  This *would* be a hazard for
the contrib version of autovacuum, but not for the 8.1 integrated
version.

(If you're using contrib autovacuum, it'd be a good idea to do
"ALTER USER SET statement_timeout = 0" for the user it runs as.)
