I just had a quick look and I feel that's probably an issue too (good find!).
I think that your fix should use GetWALInsertionTimeLineIfSet() though (but I
only did a quick scan on your patch).

I would says it's probably better to keep this thread focusing on Alexander's issue
(logical decoding). Once this thread is fixed, then I'd suggest to open a dedicated
thread for the streaming one (mentioning this thread and probably trying to mimic
its fix as close as possible).

Also I would suggest not to post "real" patches here as they conflict with mine
in the cfbot (means the cfbot won't tell me anymore if my patches need a rebase).
Please use .txt files or use "nocfbot" instead if you feel the need.
