Sure, but I think it's still worth having, for debugging purposes and
so on. Perhaps the incorrect presupposition is that it deserves to
live in /bin and not /contrib. Also, even though the tool is
derivative of pg_receivexlog, its reason for existing is sufficiently
different that maybe it deserves an entirely distinct name. On the
other hand, precisely because it's derivative of
receivelog/pg_receivexlog, it kind of makes sense to group them
together like that. So I don't know.
