Change pg_last_xlog_receive_location() not to move backwards. That makes it a lot more useful for determining which standby is most up-to-date, for example. There was long discussions on whether overwriting existing existing WAL makes sense to begin with, and whether we should do some more extensive variable renaming, but this change nevertheless seems quite uncontroversial.
