Thank you for updating those. I'm testing the patchset
and I think it's preferable that you add simple two types of more tests in 020_twophase.pl
because those aren't checked by v58.

(1) execute single PREPARE TRANSACTION
	which affects several tables (connected to corresponding publications)
	at the same time and confirm they are synced correctly.

(2) execute single PREPARE TRANSACTION which affects multiple subscribers
	and confirm they are synced correctly.
	This doesn't mean cascading standbys like 022_twophase_cascade.pl.
	Imagine that there is one publisher and two subscribers to it.

In my env, I checked those and the results were fine, though.

Best Regards,
