Work around gcc 4.6.0 bug that breaks WAL replay.
ReadRecord's habit of using both direct references to tmpRecPtr and
references to *RecPtr (which is pointing at tmpRecPtr) triggers an
optimization bug in gcc 4.6.0, which apparently has forgotten about
aliasing rules. Avoid the compiler bug, and make the code more readable
to boot, by getting rid of the direct references. Improve the comments
while at it.
Back-patch to all supported versions, in case they get built with 4.6.0.
Tom Lane, with some cosmetic suggestions from Alex Hunsaker
