Okay, pushed with that, backpatched to 9.4 which is where it all applied
with no conflicts, to ease future backpatching pain. (Some of this code
exists back in 9.3, but git generated a lot of conflicts in
cherry-picking so I didn't bother).
In SendXLogRecPtrResult() we now rely on snprintf's return value, rather
than doing a separate strlen call. We do have some other places (not a
lot admittedly) in which we rely on snprintf returning correctly. I
assume that's the norm when there's no possibility of failure.
I wonder why we use MAXFNAMELEN to print %X/%X -- that seems odd.
