I suggest that the following patch be applied. It adds a few more comments
to postgresql.conf.

(I always forget what the magic numbers 0 through 2 means for the "syslog"
option.)

By the way: The "virtual_host" parameter is a bad name for that particular
option, I think. "Virtual host" signals that PostgreSQL will behave
differently according to which IP address it's contacted (like Apache's
virtual host support which makes the web-server serve different sites
according to different criteria). A better word for the options would be
"tcpip_listen_addr" or something like that.
