Sounds like a good idea to me as this call could return ENOENT
depending on the timing of the archiver pushing the new history file,
as writeTimeLineHistory() at the end of recovery notifies the archiver
but does not wait for the fact to happen (history files are
prioritized, still there is a delay).
