receivelog.c
-------timeout.tv_sec = last_status + standby_message_timeout - now - 1;if (timeout.tv_sec <= 0)

Umm.. the above code also handles the timestamp incorrectly. ISTM that the
root cause of these problems is that receivelog.c uses TimestampTz. What
about changing receivelog.c so that it uses time_t instead of TimestampTz?
Which would make the code simpler, I think.
