I didn't think it was worth the bother, since you can't easily avoid
requesting 00000002.history or whatever the newTLI will be, so you do
still get some messages that might appear spurious. Sure we could
rewrite that, but it works and we have other matters to attend.

Also, I'm not going to add a Goto to the Postgres source code. You've
spent too long staring at ReadRecord(), it seems. :-)
