Oh it can't be that difficult.  On first glance it looks like it's a
case of piggy-backing mdopen and getting it to treat
RELPERSISTENCE_TEMP relations in the same way as it would for
relations during the bootstrap script (i.e. create it if it doesn't
exist)... then telling it not to try reading anything from the
relation... or something like this.  But I don't know C so...
