And I have spent a bit of this stuff to finish with the attached. It
will be a plus to get that done on HEAD for beta1, so I'll try to deal
with it on Monday. I am still a bit stressed about the back branches
as concurrent checkpoints are possible via CreateCheckPoint() from the
startup process (not the case of HEAD), but the stable branches will
have a new point release very soon so let's revisit this choice there
later. v6 attached includes a TAP test, but I don't intend to include
it as it is expensive.
