Yeah. What file names are actually present in $PGDATA/pg_clog/, and
what does pg_controldata say about the current XID counter? We have
seen some bugs where clog files get deleted before they're not needed
anymore :-(
Also, can you show us the pg_filedump output for the page of
pg_description you think is trashed? I find "-i -f" options give
the most useful output usually.
