Count(*) worked because it didn't access any of the long/toasted values.

You can safely copy over any of the clog files that exist in the old
cluster but not in the new one, but another vacuum is likely to remove
those files again. :-(
This sure sounds like a variation on the pg_upgrade/toast bug we fixed
in 9.0.4:
http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/20110408pg_upgrade_fix
Can you get me the 9.0.X pg_class.relfrozenxid for the toast and heap
tables involved?
FYI, this is what pg_dump --binary-upgrade does to preserve the
relfrozenxids:
-- For binary upgrade, set heap's relfrozenxidUPDATE pg_catalog.pg_classSET relfrozenxid = '702'WHERE oid =
'test'::pg_catalog.regclass;--For binary upgrade, set toast's relfrozenxidUPDATE pg_catalog.pg_classSET relfrozenxid =
'702'WHEREoid = '16434';
We also preserve the pg_class oids with:
-- For binary upgrade, must preserve pg_class oidsSELECT
binary_upgrade.set_next_heap_pg_class_oid('16431'::pg_catalog.oid);SELECT
binary_upgrade.set_next_toast_pg_class_oid('16434'::pg_catalog.oid);SELECT
binary_upgrade.set_next_index_pg_class_oid('16436'::pg_catalog.oid);
The question is whether this is working, and if not, why not?
