Can't VACUUM or dump! ERROR nodeRead - Mailing list pgsql-general

I created a couple of VIEWS and then dropped them, but after
 dropping them, I got the error message:

 ERROR: nodeRead: Bad Type 0

 Since then, I can't vacuum or dump. Any time I try, the process

 performance has been degrading rapidly (I do major bulk deletes

 I am running Linux RedHat 5.1 (Kernel 2.1.113) and PostgreSQL
 6.3.2 on a Pentium II dual-processor SMP machine.

 Any suggestions?
