No ideas here ...

Can you please find out the current Xid counter?  I think pg_controldata
should tell you.

Also, can you restore the previous state of pg_database, the one before
you deleted the old tuple?  If not, maybe a pg_filedump of the table
file (in the hope that it hasn't been vacuumed) could show something
enlightening.
