pg_receivexlog and pg_recvlogical error out when --create-slot is specified and a slot with the same name already exists. In some cases, especially with pg_receivexlog, that's rather annoying and requires additional scripting. Backpatch to 9.5 as slot control functions have newly been added to pg_receivexlog, and there doesn't seem much point leaving it in a less useful state.
