A quick-and-dirty nostrum that sometimes helps for this sort of thing
is "vacuum full pg_database". (The idea is to get rid of dead tuples
that a new backend might be accidentally picking instead of the live
ones --- it has to read pg_database before it's joined the PROC array,
which among other things means it can't tell 100% accurately which rows
are really committed.)
If no go, could we see the output of "select * from pg_database"?
