Would you look at pg_class in particular (file 1259) and confirm that it
contains only names of Postgres system catalogs and indexes, no tables
of your own?

If so, I think the evidence is pretty strong that this database was in
process of being created.  A DB that had actually gotten used at all
would have more entries in pg_class.
