I can now confirm that Simon's patch fixes the bug.  (Unfortunately I
had a web cast yesterday about this feature and the bug prevented me
from completing the demonstration.)

FYI, my presentation shows all the steps necessary to setup HS/SR:
http://momjian.us/main/presentations/technical.html#hot_streaming

One odd thing is we have two paramters that mention hot_standby --- on
the master we have to do in postgresql.conf:
wal_level = hot_standby

and on the slave we do in postgresql.conf:
hot_standby = on

That is a little confusing.
