Re: START_REPLICATION SLOT causing a crash in an assert build

Hi,

I wonder if the correct fix here wouldn't be to move the slotname out of
PgStat_StatReplSlotEntry?

I'm confused what this offsetof does here? It's not even assigned to a
specific field? Am I missing something?

Also, wouldn't we need to subtract something of the size?

This likely doesn't quite conform to what pgindent wants...
