I assume you are missing one of these fixes in 7.3.X current which were
done _after_ 7.3.4 was released:
* Fix race condition in transaction log management
There was a narrow window in which an I/O operation could be
initiated for the wrong page, leading to an Assert
failure or data corruption.
* Repair incorrect order of operations in GetNewTransactionId()
This bug could result in failure under out-of-disk-space
conditions, including inability to restart even after
disk space is freed.
