If we do it with a struct that is passed to the functions, then either
the struct contents will be available outside of xact.c, which will
expose internals of xact.c that weren't previously exposed, or we do it
with an incomplete struct, but then this would involve palloc across
transaction commit, resulting in additional complexity. Neither of
these sound like obviously better alternatives.
