I did try to get this working today, unsuccessfully. I did manage to
apply the 0002 part separately on REL_12_0 (there's one trivial rejected
chunk), but I still get the same failure. In fact, when built with
assertions, I can't even get initdb to pass :-(
I do get this:
TRAP: FailedAssertion("!(page->xlp_pageaddr == ptr - (ptr % 8192))",
File: "xlog.c", Line: 1813)
The values involved here are
xlp_pageaddr = 16777216
ptr = 20971520
so the page seems to be at the very beginning of the second WAL segment,
but the pointer is somewhere later. A full backtrace is attached.
I'll continue investigating this, but the xlog code is not particularly
easy to understand in general, so it may take time.
