Ok, I had a extra look on the patch:

+            called <filename>pg_xlog.tar</filename>.
+           </para>
s/transactionn/transaction/, and the <para> markup should be on its own line.

+       }
+       if (fsync_parent_path(tmppath, progname) != 0)
+       {
+           close(fd);
+           return NULL;
+       }
+   }
Nit: squashing both things together would simplify the code.

+       else if (method == CLOSE_UNLINK

Your finger slipped here.

Except that it looks in pretty good to me, so I am switching that as
ready for committer.

Agreed (you were able to break only tar upthread with your patch). One
way to do that elegantly would be to:
1) extend slurp_dir to return only files that have a matching pattern.
That's not difficult to do:
--- a/src/test/perl/TestLib.pm
+++ b/src/test/perl/TestLib.pm
@@ -184,10 +184,14 @@ sub generate_ascii_string

 sub slurp_dir
 {
-   my ($dir) = @_;
+   my ($dir, $match_pattern) = @_;
    opendir(my $dh, $dir)
      or die "could not opendir \"$dir\": $!";
    my @direntries = readdir $dh;
+   if (defined($match_pattern))
+   {
+       @direntries = grep($match_pattern, @direntries);
+   }
    closedir $dh;
    return @direntries;
 }
Sorting them at the same time may be a good idea..
2) Add an option to pg_xlogdump to be able to output its output to a
file. That would be awkward to rely on grabbing the output data from a
pipe... On Windows particularly. Thinking about it, would that
actually be useful to others? That's not a complicated patch.
