So, the commit message says

    Fix failure of archive recovery with recovery_min_apply_delay enabled.
    
    recovery_min_apply_delay parameter is intended for use with streaming
    replication deployments. However, the document clearly explains that
    the parameter will be honored in all cases if it's specified. So it should
    take effect even if in archive recovery. But, previously, archive recovery
    with recovery_min_apply_delay enabled always failed, and caused assertion
    failure if --enable-caasert is enabled.

but I'm not clear how would this problem manifest in the case of a build
with assertions disabled.  Will it keep sleeping beyond the specified
time?
