Is there a reason we require single quotes around boolean values in
recovery.conf?

standby_mode = 'off'

This does not work:

standby_mode = off

I knew there were inconsistencies between quoting in postgresql.conf and
recovery.conf, but I didn't realize it extended to boolean quoting. I
see this at the top of recovery.conf now:

# This file consists of lines of the form:
#
# name = 'value'
#
# (The quotes around the value are NOT optional, but the "=" is.)
#

and this issue existed in 8.4 as well. Seems I just never noticed it,
and it not specifically mentioned in the TODO item we already have.
