Andres Freund e6c44eef55 Fix off-by-one possibly leading to skipped XLOG_RUNNING_XACTS records. 
Since 6ef2eba3f5 ("Skip checkpoints, archiving on idle systems."),
GetLastImportantRecPtr() is used to avoid performing superfluous
checkpoints, xlog switches, running-xact records when the system is
idle.  Unfortunately the check concerning running-xact records had a
off-by-one error, leading to such records being potentially skipped
when only a single record has been inserted since the last
running-xact record.

An alternative approach would have been to change
GetLastImportantRecPtr()'s definition to point to the end of records,
but that would make the checkpoint code more complicated.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

	http://www.postgresql.org/download

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
http://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
