are in their commit critical sections via flags in the ProcArray.  Checkpoint
can watch the ProcArray to determine when it's safe to proceed.  This is
a considerably better solution to the original problem of race conditions
between checkpoint and transaction commit: it speeds up commit, since there's
one less lock to fool with, and it prevents the problem of checkpoint being
delayed indefinitely when there's a constant flow of commits.  Heikki, with
some kibitzing from Tom.
