There is a contrib utility (pg_resetxlog) that allows clearing of pg_xlog.
It may be worth trying this. Note though clearing the WAL files can leave
the database in an inconsistent state. If you can I'd make a back up of the
entire data area then ask on general or maybe bugs. I suspect some people
would be interested in working out exactly what is stopping it starting.
