Nope. Someone was looking into it once but never heard anything since.

Quick hint, have you actually connected to othe correct database, maybe
that's why there's nothing in it?

this is what i got when trying it:

./pgfsck -D /virtual/data -s 8192 -d mydb
-- Detected database format 8.0
Couldn't find relation pg_class(1259)


mydb should be a text or the oid... hum...

I really seriously doubt that pgfsck would help at all anyway.
I think you've either not yet got your transaction counter fixed,
or you've got some other problem with sewing the new and old parts
of the installation together.  One possibility is that your pg_shadow
table (which would have been in global) needs to be tweaked; are you
sure it's got the right usesysid values for all your users?
