+# Wait for the standby to replay the CREATE/DROP catalog state.  At
+# this point the standby's pg_database.dathasloginevt is still true.
+$primary->wait_for_replay_catchup($standby);
+
+# A new connection to the standby exercises EventTriggerOnLogin()'s
+# cleanup branch.  With the RecoveryInProgress() guard, that branch is
+# skipped on the standby and the connection succeeds.  Without it the
+# session aborts with a FATAL about AccessExclusiveLock.  Probing the
+# flag itself via safe_psql is what triggers the cleanup path.
+is( $standby->safe_psql(
+ 'postgres',
+ "SELECT dathasloginevt FROM pg_database WHERE datname = 'postgres'"),
+ 't',
+ 'standby accepts connection and reports dangling dathasloginevt');

The test looks unstable to me. wait_for_replay_catchup() may connect to
the primary to obtain the flush LSN, which could cause dathasloginevt to
become false before the subsequent safe_psql() call on the standby.
