I wonder if it's possible to increment "xactCompletionCount"
during replay along these lines:

     *** a/src/backend/access/transam/xact.c
     --- b/src/backend/access/transam/xact.c
     *************** xact_redo_commit(xl_xact_parsed_commit *
     *** 5915,5920 ****
     --- 5915,5924 ----
              */
             if (XactCompletionApplyFeedback(parsed->xinfo))
                     XLogRequestWalReceiverReply();
     +
     +       LWLockAcquire(ProcArrayLock, LW_EXCLUSIVE);
     +       ShmemVariableCache->xactCompletionCount++;
     +       LWLockRelease(ProcArrayLock);
       }

which seems to work (though quite possibly I've overlooked something I don't
know that I don't know about and it will all break horribly somewhere,
etc. etc.).

We'd also need the same in a few more places. Probably worth looking at
the list where we increment it on the primary (particularly we need to
also increment it for aborts, and 2pc commit/aborts).

Yup.

At first I was very confused as to why none of the existing tests have
found this significant issue. But after thinking about it for a minute
that's because they all use psql, and largely separate psql invocations
for each query :(. Which means that there's no cached snapshot around...

Do you want to try to write a patch?

Sure, I'll give it a go as I have some time right now.
