We also ended up dropping the database and restoring from dumps.
However all recent dumps ended up having a similar corruption and we
were still getting the same errors. We had to go back to an October
dump before it would come up cleanly. And our db is fairly large, and
it takes around 4 hours to load a dump. We were working on this Friday
from 8:30 AM until 4AM Saturday before we got it going. And now we're
trying to recall all the alters we did since then, and reload all the
data since then, most of which is in files we can import. The only
thing we don't have is the manual updates done. All in all a total
disaster and something that will make us rethink our procedures.
Perhaps we'll look at replication, although I don't know if that would
have helped in this case.
