I think we can solve this easily by flipping a new Boolean value at the
same point were MyBackendType was previously set. The attached POC
fixes the scenario you described; can you confirm? It needs some
additional comments, of course.
(There is one more place in elog.c where we check that MyBackendType is
_not_ B_LOGGER, but I think that one is correct as-is; and I'm wondering
if that would behave correctly before 0c8e082fba8d.)
