Seems Vadim already added readdir() that does similar work for WAL
files in xlog.c:

while ((xlde = readdir(xldir)) != NULL)
{
if (strlen(xlde->d_name) == 16 &&
strspn(xlde->d_name, "0123456789ABCDEF") == 16 &&
strcmp(xlde->d_name, lastoff) <= 0)
{
elog(LOG, "MoveOfflineLogs: %s %s", (XLOG_archive_dir[0]) ?
"archive" : "remove", xlde->d_name);
sprintf(path, "%s%c%s", XLogDir, SEP_CHAR, xlde->d_name);
if (XLOG_archive_dir[0] == 0)
unlink(path);
}
errno = 0;
}

I will remove the _REG test and add the strspn test he has:

if (strspn(temp_de->d_name, "0123456789.") ==
strlen(temp_de->dname))
