--create/--dropare used in my patch is for the sake of consistency btw. 9.4 ship has not sailed yet, and IMO it is
importantfrom the user prospective if options are a maximum consistent between pg_receivexlog and pg_recvlogical. That
wouldbe even better if change is done before 9.4beta3 shows up, and I doubt that there are many users using the
--create/--dropoptions already.<br />-- <br />Michael<br /></div></div>
