Here is the dumped progres information by the attached patch
(only for debug purpose).

         cur prog.  xlog prog. time prog.
[-400ms] 0.030503   0.019247   0.031158   (diff xlogid=0, xrecoff=82665472)
[-200ms] 0.031176   0.019957   0.031839   (diff xlogid=0, xrecoff=85712896)
[*]      0.031860   1.020706   0.032521   (diff xlogid=1, xrecoff=105709568)

> recptr.xrecoff - ckpt_start_recptr.xrecoff

recptr.xrecoff is reset to 0 or so when xlogid is bumped up. At that time,
if ckpt_start_recptr.xrecoff is greater than 2G, we cannot represent
the difference with int32 because the value is less than -2G.
Casting double after int32 does not help us.

We use ( xlogid * 255 * 16MB + xrecoff ) as a base value for the calculation.
If we interprets xrecoff=105709568 at [*] as "minus uint32", we can calcurate
it correctly as below:

         without fix  with fix
[-400ms]   82665472   82665472 (same)
[-200ms]   85712896   85712896 (same)
[*]      4383899648   88932353 (= 1*255*16MB - (0xFFFFFFFF - 105709568) )
