WaitLSNCleanup() was called from ProcKill(), but not from AuxiliaryProcKill(), even though xlogwait.c sizes its shared memory to include NUM_AUXILIARY_PROCS and thus accepts calls from auxiliary processes. Such a process exiting while waiting would leave its entry in the heap. Register an on_shmem_exit callback lazily before a process enters a wait-for-lsn heap instead, as suggested by Noah: that keeps the cleanup local to xlogwait.c and makes it harder to miss a caller that needs it, rather than having to remember every process-kill path.
