If it's documented, I haven't found it yet.  I generally find the
labels to be pretty descriptive, though.
 
"pg_control last modified" is the last time the server wrote control
information out to the disk.  "Time of latest checkpoint" is the
last time a checkpoint had been performed at the point when the
control data was last written.
