 *	   and flag data describing page state.  The first page in a btree, page
 *	   zero, is special -- it stores meta-information describing the tree.
 *	   Pages one and higher store the actual tree data.

	 * If parent became half dead, recurse to delete it. Otherwise, if right
	 * sibling is empty and is now the last child of the parent, recurse to
	 * try to delete it.  (These cases cannot apply at the same time, though
	 * the second case might itself recurse to the first.)
	 *
	 * When recursing to parent, we hold the lock on the target page until
	 * done.  This delays any insertions into the keyspace that was just
	 * effectively reassigned to the parent's right sibling.  If we allowed
	 * that, and there were enough such insertions before we finish deleting
	 * the parent, page splits within that keyspace could lead to inserting
	 * out-of-order keys into the grandparent level.  It is thought that that
	 * wouldn't have any serious consequences, but it still seems like a
	 * pretty bad idea.
