Hmm, I think I was a bit shy in this commit; it used to do this:

            if (pg_fsync(openLogFile) != 0)
                ereport(PANIC,
                        (errcode_for_file_access(),
                         errmsg("could not fsync log segment %s: %m",
                                XLogFileNameP(curFileTLI, readSegNo))));

I changed readSegNo to openLogSegNo.  However I think I should have also
changed curFileTLI to ThisTimeLineID; but I'm not so sure about that
one.

I'm not particularly fond of the (rather confusing) extensive use of
global vars throughout the xlog code.  Am I the only one?
