Thanks.  I've applied the change with the following commit message:

Fixed a pexit() call in recovery.c: rec_format_error() to build with -Wformat
-Werror=format-security, although there was no real issue with the current code
(the corresponding argument to rec_format_error() was a string literal on all
calls to that function).  This was independently discovered and reported by
Dmitry V. Levin and Guillaume Rousse.

Then I made some corrections/enhancements to recovery.c's error
handling, which may actually affect runtime behavior in some subtle
cases.  All of this will appear in 1.7.3.4+.
