More review, all superficial stuff:
+typedef struct
+{
+ RelFileNode rnode;
+ ForkNumber forknum;
+ SegmentNumber segno;
+} FileTagData;
+
+typedef FileTagData *FileTag;
Even though I know I said we should take FileTag by pointer, and even
though there is an older tradition in the tree of having a struct
named "FooData" and a corresponding pointer typedef named "Foo", as
far as I know most people are not following the convention for new
code and I for one don't like it. One problem is that there isn't a
way to make a pointer-to-const type given a pointer-to-non-const type,
so you finish up throwing away const from your programs. I like const
as documentation and a tiny bit of extra compiler checking. What do
you think about "FileTag" for the struct and eg "const FileTag *tag"
when receiving one as a function argument?

Aha, about time too!
+#include "fmgr.h"
+#include "storage/block.h"
+#include "storage/relfilenode.h"
+#include "storage/smgr.h"
+#include "storage/sync.h"
Why do we need to include fmgr.h in md.h?
+/* md storage manager funcationality */
Typo.
+/* md sync callback forward declarations */
These aren't "forward" declarations, they're plain old declarations.
+extern char* mdfilepath(FileTag ftag);
Doesn't really matter too much because all of this will get
pgindent-ed at some point, but FYI we write "char *md", not "char*
md".
#include "storage/smgr.h"
+#include "storage/md.h"
#include "utils/hsearch.h"
Bad sorting.
+ FileTagData tag;
+ tag.rnode = reln->smgr_rnode.node;
+ tag.forknum = forknum;
+ tag.segno = seg->mdfd_segno;
I wonder if it would be better practice to zero-initialise that
sucker, so that if more members are added we don't leave them
uninitialised. I like the syntax "FileTagData tag = {{0}}".
(Unfortunately extra nesting required here because first member is a
struct, and C99 doesn't allow us to use empty {} like C++, even though
some versions of GCC accept it. Rats.)
