Just tested it. There steps are not sufficient to reproduce the issue on
a test installation. I suppose because, on small test datadir, the
checkpoint location and the redo location on the pg_control are the same
present in the backup_label.
To trigger this bug you need to have at least a restartpoint happened on
standby between the start and the end of the backup.
you could simulate it issuing a checkpoint on master, a checkpoint on
standby (to force a restartpoint), then copying the pg_control from the
standby.
This way I've been able to reproduce it.
