Oh, OK.

Ok, I changed it like you suggest. I didn't do any other order changes.
I still propose that the log line number should be moved w.r.t. session
identifier.
I changed two more things: the VXID is not reported if not in a backend
(because AuxiliaryProcesses are said to never have one), and added
quotes surrounding the hostname, because in a test here it seems
supported to create an alias for my loopback interface with a name like
"a,b".
