I believe that what was agreed was to eliminate "xlog" from
user-facing parts of the system, not internal details.  If we're going
to eliminate it from the internals, we should do that in a systematic
way, not just in the parts that happen to be getting changed from by
some other patch.  But personally I think that would be more trouble
than it's worth.  It would severely complicate future back-patching --
even more than what we've done already -- for not a whole lot of gain.
