You wouldn't, because that's a composite of two messages: we are waiting
for some lock while still in startup mode. A reasonable bet is that
someone's got a more-or-less-exclusive lock on one of the system
catalogs that startup needs to read. The contents of pg_locks would
help, if this state persists long enough to investigate ...
