Looking at global/11787, doesn't reveal any obvious corruption.
The server was running with:
  synchronous_commit = off
  full_page_writes = off

full_page_writes = off is the problem.

From the docs:

Turning this parameter off speeds normal operation, but might lead to either unrecoverable data corruption, or silent data corruption, after a system failure. The risks are similar to turning off fsync, though smaller, and it should be turned off only based on the same circumstances recommended for that parameter.
