Yeah.  This particular instance got added by me, but it is a copy and
paste from xlog_logrec_hblks, which again consolidate multiple chunks
of this style of code, which were moved around a few times.

I think originally this came from Nathan fixing this:

-               if ((h_version && XLOG_VERSION_2) &&
+
+               if ((h_version & XLOG_VERSION_2) &&

or in other words, this was a mess all the way back.
