What I think we could/should do about that for 8.4 is to improve the
HINTs associated with the impending-wraparound warnings in varsup.c,
so that they mention cleaning out old prepared transactions as another
thing you might need to do. A more extensive solution --- in
particular, adding warnings that occur at some lower threshold than
the wraparound warnings --- seems to me to require more changes than
we should consider post-beta. It might be worth working on for 8.5
though.
(In case it's not clear, I'm envisioning changing the
max_prepared_transactions default for 8.4. It won't be a big change
if we do it as Heikki suggests.)
regards, tom lane
