Yes. The database definitely was in en_US.ISO8859-1 locale, even if you
thought otherwise. That information comes from inside the pg_control
file, which is CRC-checked, so it's highly unlikely that corruption of
pg_control would have resulted in this message. I think it's much more
likely that you lost the files that setlocale needs to define this
locale.
