I guess it's replica / origin, per choice of Jan Wieck to be found in
our catalogs:

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/catalog-pg-trigger.html

tgenabled char

Controls in which session_replication_role modes the trigger fires.
O = trigger fires in "origin" and "local" modes, D = trigger is
disabled, R = trigger fires in "replica" mode, A = trigger fires
always.

So that's origin/replica, master/slave, primary/standby, master/standby.
