Not exactly corruption. XID was not persisted and buffer data did not
hit a disk. Database is in the correct state.

It was discussed long before WAL compression here [0]. The thing is it
is easier to reproduce with compression, but compression has nothing
to do with it, as far as I understand.

Proposed fix is here[1], but I think it's better to fix the test. It
should not veryfi Xid, but rather side effects of "CREATE TABLE mine(x
integer);".
