commit    9cd6685f918898eaa543fda95751fc804ee22348
Author:   Heikki Linnakangas <heikki.linnakangas@iki.fi>
Date:     Thu Aug 27 07:15:41 2009 +0000
First released in: 9.0.0, 8.4.1

    In the checkpoint written at the end of archive recovery, the WAL page header
    was incorrectly initialized with timeline ID 0. That rendered the WAL page
    unrecoverable, making a subsequent archive recovery stop at that point.
    ThisTimeLineID needs to be initialized before calling AdvanceXLInsertBuffer().
    
    This fixes bug #5011 reported by James Bardin. Backpatch to 8.4, as the bug
    was introduced by the changes to use of bgwriter for writing the
    end-of-archive-recovery checkpoint. Patch by Tom Lane.
