Yes, it is reproducible. I tested 8.3 and 8.4, and found 8.3 and newer
versions failed to recover.
  * 8.2,17 => OK
  * 8.3.11, 8.4.4, 9.0b4 => FAILED

Same error messages were logged on failed cases:
  FATAL:  pre-existing shared memory block is still in use
  HINT:  Check if there are any old server processes still running,
and terminate them.

Changes for the issue might be introduced between 8.2 and 8.3,
or in bugfixes only applied to 8.3 or newer versions.
