I'm in the need for my custom written replication engine to obtain the current

It's the last piece of postgresql C code I have left in my application and I
think it would be a nice information in general to have available for users.
If not for anything else then for simple statistics.
I attached the function I use with great success today.
Using XID directly has some drawbacks, I need similary finctionality,
and decided to extend XID to 8-bytes and use that externally:

Would that work for you?
