Meh. There must be a folder named archive_status in pg_xlog. Or
something is broken with your installation. Don't you have in your log
files something like that?
LOG: could not create archive status file
"pg_xlog/archive_status/000000010000000000000001.ready": No such file
or directory
That's what you would get if archive_status was for some reason
missing, and pg_xlog would just keep the WAL segments around until its
partition gets full.
