Yeah, generally we didn't rename source files, functions, structures,
or anything like that. It's still assumed that, if you are developing
core or extension code against PostgreSQL, you know that "xlog" means
"WAL". But hopefully users won't have to know that any more, once we
get past the inevitable migration pain caused by the changes in v10.
