Yeah makes sense.
Also, rounding to zero wouldn't occur with "just" displaying "oldestLSN
- restart_lsn" (as proposed upthread).

Yeah right, but that's already the case in some part of the code, like
for example in arrayfuncs.c:
ereport(ERROR,
(errcode(ERRCODE_PROGRAM_LIMIT_EXCEEDED),
errmsg("array size exceeds the maximum allowed
(%d)",
(int) MaxAllocSize)));

Right and I'm -1 on it, I think we should stick to the "pretty" or the
"bytes only" approach (my preference being the bytes only one).
