I'm not exactly sure what the problem is, or how it happened.

I have a database where I deleted all records from all tables.  I
run a vacuum full and am left with about 1 GB of data.

What I think is happening is that it somehow thinks that data is
still in use by an other transanction, but that is not the case.
I even restated to make sure.

Anybody got any idea how this could have happened?

I once saw this in the log, and think it might be related:

Should I worry about that "unexpected pageaddr"?  It ussually
says "ReadRecord: record with zero length" after an unclean shut
down.
