usesuper does indicate that the user is a super user. The reason I asked
was your problem sounded suspiciously like the "No one parent tuple was
found" error that was fixed in 7.2.4. I *thought* that those cases we're
the result of vacuuming as non-superuser, but you may want to search the
archives if it pops up again, there might be other cases that cause it.
Oh, I guess I should make the obligatory "you might want to upgrade"
suggestion as well :-)
