Attached in an updated 02 patch which:

   1. Call RetrieveXLogSegSize(conn) in pg_receivewal.c
   2. Remove the warning in Windows
   3. Change PATH_MAX in pg_waldump with MAXPGPATH

Regarding the usage of the wal file size as the XLogSegSize, I agree with
what Robert has said. Generally, the wal size will be of the expected
wal_segment_size and to have it any other size, esspecially of a valid
power2 value is extremely rare and I feel it is not a major cause of
concern.

Thank you,
