Hmmm, seems your Xid counter wrapped around.  Have you vacuumed the
system catalogs in that database?  Particularly pg_class, pg_attribute
etc ...

Since you already have a backup, the easiest way out is to forget the
borked installation and restore the backup, then ensure this doesn't
happen to you ever again by switching to a more modern release that has
specific protections against it.
