Hm.  Why were these vars not propagated by the regular mechanism for GUC
variables (write_nondefault_variables or whatever it's called)?  If the
problem is that it's not accepting PGC_INTERNAL values, then we need to
fix it there not here, because otherwise we'll have to pass all the
PGC_INTERNAL variables through the backend_variables file, which seems
like a recipe for more of the same sort of bug.
