Hi,

I have the same problem here. Master/slave running on 9.3.current. On
the master everything is normal, but on the slave server, files in
pg_xlog and archive_status pile up. Interestingly, the filenames are
mostly 0x20 apart. (IRC user Kassandry is reporting the same issue on
9.4 as well, including the 0x20 spacing.)

In the meantime, I've manually removed the .ready files that do not
have a corresponding xlog files, but the files do not get cleaned up.
Since I gathered the data for the past yesterday evening, a new file
(00000001000000330000003F) has appeared, but now there's even a gap in
the .done files:
