Agree those are perfectly good question to ask on -general.  (but on
hackers it looks excessive)
Rajib: this is relative to initdb, it produces one key to be able to
check later if postgresql is restoring the good files.
(
from sources :
    /*
     * Unique system identifier --- to ensure we match up xlog files with the
     * installation that produced them.
     */
)

Robert, Please don't add confusion to your signature : PostgreSQL is a
community project not an enterprise product.
