I guess it should still be a configure option, then. Or maybe there
should just be a USE_ABBREV_KEYS macro within pg_config_manual.h.

Are you suggesting that the patch be committed with the optimization
enabled on all platforms by default, with the option to revisit
disabling it if and when there is user push-back? I don't think that's
unreasonable, given the precautions now taken, but I'm just not sure
that's what you mean.
