You mean the full-page write consistency tool? Heikki initiated that,
a common interface to be able to mask pages and make them consistent
for comparison on the master and the standby was also part of the

into core is sqlsmith, which would actually be a complete rewrite
because the upstream code is under GPL license and depends on libpqxx.
