A suggestion that I have here would be to patch manually the postmaster with any kind of code which would make it to crash before main() is called. Anything is fine as long as a core dump is produced, right?
When I was doing the original crashdump support I wrote a crashme extension that deliberately dereferenced a null pointer.
You'd do something similar in the postmaster for the testing.
