Err, sure, but that isn't actually what is being passed via %p. %p will
be something like 'pg_xlog/RECOVERY_WAL', as I said, which *won't* work
for your tar command, eg:
sfrost@tamriel:/home/sfrost> tar -xzf zz.tar.gz -C zz/zz
tar: zz/zz: Cannot open: No such file or directory
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
sfrost@tamriel:/home/sfrost> echo $?
2

Noooo, PG tells you via %p the *specific* filename to use, do not just
overwrite files in pg_xlog willy-nilly with a tar command.
Thanks,
