Putting an elog call into GetNewTransactionId seems like a completely
horrid idea from a performance standpoint. Especially if you put it
inside the XidGenLock hold, where it can block the entire system not just
the one process. But even without that, this seems like a performance
penalty with basically no real-world benefit. People who have issues
like this are not going to want to trawl the postmaster log for such
messages.
