I've been futzing with trying to reproduce the original problem for a few days
and so far postgres seems to be just fine with a long delay on archiving, so
now I'm rather at a loss.  In fact, I currently have 1,234 xlog files in
pg_xlog, but the archiver is happily archiving one every 5 minutes.  Perhaps
I'll try a long delay followed by a failure to see if that could be it.
