When you don't specify a start segment to pg_xlogdump, you get:

pg_xlogdump: no start log position given in range mode.

What is "range mode", and is there any other mode for pg_xlogdump? Should
it not just be "no start log position or segment given" or something like
that?

Works for me as well.

I assume that means you agree with changing it, so I will.
