If it were me I'd have the documentation mention
that the pg_current_logfiles() result is
supplied on a "best effort" basis and under
rare conditions may be outdated.   The
sentence in the pg_current_logfles() docs
which reads "pg_current_logfiles reflects the contents 
of the file current_logfiles." now carries little
meaning because the current_logfiles docs no
longer mention that the file content may be outdated.
