I guess it's replica / origin, per choice of Jan Wieck to be found in
our catalogs:
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/catalog-pg-trigger.html
 tgenabled    char          
 Controls in which session_replication_role modes the trigger fires.  O = trigger fires in "origin" and "local" modes,
D= trigger is disabled, R = trigger fires in "replica" mode, A = trigger fires always.
 

So that's origin/replica, master/slave, primary/standby, master/standby.
