OK, so done. I have put the renaming of pg_xlog to pg_wal on top patch
stack as that's the one making no discussion it seems: a lot of people
like pg_wal. I have added as well handling for the renaming in
pg_basebackup by using PQserverVersion. One thing to note is that a
connection needs to be made to the target server *before* creating the
soft link of pg_xlog/pg_wal because we need to know the version of the
target server. pg_upgrade is handled as well. And that's all in 0001.
Patch 0002 does pg_clog -> pg_trans, "trans" standing for
"transaction". Switching to pg_trans_status or pg_xact_status is not
that complicated to change anyway...
