field of the WAL record. The previous coding always wrote to the main fork, resulting in data corruption if the page was meant to go into a non-default fork. At present, the only operation that can produce such WAL records is ALTER TABLE/INDEX SET TABLESPACE when executed with archive_mode = on. Data corruption would be observed on standby slaves, and could occur on the master as well if a database crash and recovery occurred after committing the ALTER and before the next checkpoint. Per report from Gordon Shannon. Back-patch to 8.4; the problem doesn't exist in earlier branches because we didn't have a concept of multiple relation forks then.REL9_0_STABLE
