Thanks. It's just the changes in xact.c, so it doesn't seem like it would
cause you any more work either way, in which case, I'll leave it to you :-)

FYI, the OID I chose was simply the closest single value to those used for
the other related functions (e.g. pg_stat_get_numscans). Seemed like a good
way to use up one more random unused value, but I don't care if it gets
changed to the 8000+ range.
