I have also been seeing this warning lately, I had tried to check git log,
and
seems like following commit 546c13e11b29 by Simon has introduced it.

But per the commit log, this seems to be a temporary arrangement:

commit 546c13e11b29a5408b9d6a6e3cca301380b47f7f
Author: Simon Riggs <simon(at)2ndQuadrant(dot)com>
Date: Sun Apr 23 22:12:01 2017 +0100

Workaround for RecoverPreparedTransactions()

Force overwriteOK = true while we investigate deeper fix

Proposed by Tom Lane as temporary measure, accepted by me

With latest update on following thread, it seems like Simon has proposed a
fix
that gets rid of flag overwriteOK:
