Yeah? Well, that explains something I was wondering about, which is why
the PG_VERSION mismatch complaint didn't come out first.
Where exactly did you get the server code you were running in this
database? Is it possible that it was an early-7.2-development snapshot?
AFAICS the only code that would have used catversion 200101061 with
PG_VERSION 7.2 is 7.2 devel versions dated before 2001-05-05, which was
the next catversion change.
Anyway, the bottom line is you will need to resurrect the exact same
server code you were using before in order to read this database.
