Yes, Tom has removed this option in favorite of just setting archive_command to a value which then enables the PITR code also. But as I've seen this isn't discussed to the very end currently. My 2ct: I'd prefer to have archive_mode in the config as it really makes clear that this database is archiving. I fear users will not understand that giving a program for archival will also enable the PITR function.
