If there's no objection, I'll go ahead and apply the parts of this that
create a separate XLOG_BLCKSZ symbol, but not (yet) the parts that
actually change any parameter values. I can't see any very good reason
why data block size and xlog block size were ever tied together, and I
think it'll make the code read better if they're separated.
