Took a quick look.  I agree that this seems a lot cleaner than the
alternative proposals.  I'd suggest however that the header comment
for do_pg_abort_backup could do with more work, perhaps along the
lines of "The odd-looking signature allows this to be registered
directly as a shmem_exit handler".

Personally I'd have kept the handler as a separate function that's just
a one-line wrapper around "void do_pg_abort_backup(bool emit_warning)".
We don't usually treat callbacks as functions to be also called in
their own right.  But if you don't want to do that, I'll settle for an
acknowledgement of the hack in the comment.

            regards, tom lane
