Hi,

Current pg_resetxlog doesn't remove any archive status files. This
may cause continuous failure of archive command since .ready file
remains even if a corresponding XLOG segment is removed. And,
.done file without XLOG segment cannot be removed by checkpoint,
and would remain forever. These are undesirable behaviors.

I think that pg_resetxlog should remove existing archive status files
of XLOG segments. Here is the patch to do so.

Thought?

Regards,
