Already implemented. But - up to 8192 oids may be lost in the event
of crash (ie without normal database shutdown when last fetched oid
is logged to WAL).

Backends don't grab block of oids anymore.

Too late to object -:))
I had to make this changes for WAL. BTW, pg_variable is not used anymore
but still in schema - have to remove it someday.
