I would argue Heikki's WAL stuff is a perfect case for releasing a
public alpha/beta soon.  I'd love to test PgBackRest with an "official"
9.5dev build.  The PgBackRest test suite has lots of tests that run on
versions 8.3+ and might well shake out any bugs that are lying around.

In fact, I've added a new feature based on monitoring the thread and I'm
interested to see how that pans out.
