Hi,

While I'm implementing the patch around pg_archivecleanup, I found
the following warning about pg_archivecleanup in the document.
   Note that the .backup file name passed to the program should not
include the extension.

ISTM that pg_archivecleanup works as expected even if the .backup file
with the extension is specified as follows. So, isn't this warning already
obsolete? Or I'm missing something?

$ pg_archivecleanup -d -x .zip myarchive
000000010000000000000009.00000028.backup.zip
pg_archivecleanup: keep WAL file "myarchive/000000010000000000000009" and later
