Oh ... looking again at your latest problem query, the query is buggy:
db=# SELECT ... pg_relation_size(c.relname) ...
FROM pg_class c INNER JOIN pg_buffercache b ON b.relfilenode = c.relfilenode ...
ERROR: relation "pg_toast_1255" does not exist
The pg_toast schema isn't in your search path so you can't just do
"pg_relation_size(c.relname)". You'd be better off using
pg_relation_size(c.oid) anyway.
I was misled by the chance coincidence that pg_proc's toast table was
the one mentioned, otherwise I'd probably have seen this sooner.
So this is not a bug, and not related to the original problem. We still
don't know what the original problem was, but I wonder if it might have
been of the same ilk. I don't think you ever showed us the exact query
that led to the "could not open relation" message?
