I understand why pg_xlog and pg_wal both need to be listed here, but I don't get why the proposed changes were "wrong". Or, are you saying that if for any reason PG_TBLSPC_DIR needs to be changed that would not work anymore? If that's the case, then I guess we'd have to add a new define and test like: strcmp(filename, PG_TBLSPC_DIR) == 0) || strcmp(filename, NEW_PG_TBLSPC_DIR) == 0) , no? The question is more out of curiosity, not saying the changes should be applied in astreamer_file.c though. > Perhaps we should to more for the two entries in basebackup.c with the > relative paths, but I'm not sure that's worth bothering, either.

Yeah, I think that's fine and specially because there is still some places ( outside of the comments) that don't rely on the define(s).
