Let's be sure that you are not mistaking xlogdump, which is here
(https://github.com/snaga/xlogdump/) and only compatible up to 9.2,
and pg_xlogdump, which is available in-core since 9.3 as a contrib
module:

If you are using 9.3, you should have a package for contrib modules,
simply deploy it and then use pg_xlogdump. Referring the problem with
"mismatched folders", you will need to give more details because it is
hard to guess what the problem is based on the little information
provided, let us know for example what you tried to do and what is the
error you saw.
