I'm on the same side. Whether do you think this as a 12-issue or
for later versions? I think there is no risk in changing it now so
I wish the change is contained in 12-shipping.

Thanks for the pointer. I'm seeing the result of the discussion
now. Apart from the discussion of translate-or-not decision,
there can be a discussion how we can reduce the burden of
translation work. I was a bit tired to translate something like
the followings:

old and new pg_controldata block sizes are invalid or do not match
old and new pg_controldata maximum relation segment sizes are invalid
or do not match
old and new pg_controldata WAL block sizes are invalid or do not match
...

I'm not sure where is the compromisable point between burden of
translators and programmers, though.

regards.
