Uh, shouldn't we actually fail if we read incompletely? Rather than
silently ignoring the problem? Ok, this causes no corruption, but it
indicates that something went significantly wrong.

+                       char            new_vmbuf[BLCKSZ];
+                       char       *new_cur = new_vmbuf;
+                       bool            empty = true;
+                       bool            old_lastpart;

+                       /* Copy page header in advance */
+                       memcpy(new_vmbuf, &pageheader, SizeOfPageHeaderData);

Shouldn't we zero out new_vmbuf? Afaics we're not necessarily zeroing it
with old_lastpart && !empty, right?


+       if ((dst_fd = open(tofile, O_RDWR | O_CREAT | (force ? 0 : O_EXCL), 
S_IRUSR | S_IWUSR)) < 0)
+       {
+               close(src_fd);
+               return getErrorText();
+       }

I know you guys copied this, but what's the force thing about?
Expecially as it's always set to true by the callers (i.e. what is the
parameter even about?)?  Wouldn't we at least have to specify O_TRUNC in
the force case?


+                               old_cur += BITS_PER_HEAPBLOCK_OLD;
+                               new_cur += BITS_PER_HEAPBLOCK;

I'm not sure I'm understanding the point of the BITS_PER_HEAPBLOCK_OLD
stuff - as long as it's hardcoded into rewriteVisibilityMap() we'll not
be able to have differing ones anyway, should we decide to add a third
bit?
