Thepatch modifies the latter two cases to match initdb.

I have noticed that in StartupXlog also we reset it with 1, you might
want to fix that as well?

StartupXLOG
{
...
/*
* Initialize unlogged LSN. On a clean shutdown, it's restored from the
* control file. On recovery, all unlogged relations are blown away, so
* the unlogged LSN counter can be reset too.
*/
if (ControlFile->state == DB_SHUTDOWNED)
XLogCtl->unloggedLSN = ControlFile->unloggedLSN;
else
XLogCtl->unloggedLSN = 1;
