OK.  I did a little checking:

    #$ cd /pg/include/catalog/
    #$ grep 683 *.h
    #$ grep 682 *.h
    #$ grep 681 *.h
    pg_proc.h:DATA(insert OID = 681 (  oid8gt                          PGUID
    11 f t f 2 f 16 "30 30" 100 0 0 100  foo bar ));

    #$ sql test

Your system is complaining about a lookup of 683.  Part of the problem
is that there is no reference to that number in the system catalog
stuff, nor on my running system.  Now I will say that 681 is one of the
new functions I added to allow indexing of the oid8 field.  My guess is
that somewhere you have something with that number in your source, and
it should not be there.

Try reproducing my 'grep' and see if you get anything.  If you do, the
somehow you have an old copy of the source.
