Shared pg_xlog directory/partition and warm standby server

Hello,

Is there anything that may prevent two PostgreSQL servers to share the
same pg_xlog directory; while one is using read-only and the other one
is using the same partition for read and write? The problem is: If we
share the same pg_xlog between production server and warm standby
server; can you see any possibility of data/xlog corruption? Of course,
warm standby server will mount that partition as read-only.

I thought a bit on this; could not find any possibilities. Can you think
of one?

Regards,
