Hmm, if it were a slightly newer version I'd be interested in how you
got into this state, but since it's 7.2 I'll write it off as an old
bug. The easiest way out, seeing that pg_statistic is all derived data,
is just
DELETE FROM pg_statistic;
(possibly VACUUM FULL pg_statistic here)
re-ANALYZE everything
You should try the nearby suggestion to REINDEX first, but I'm betting
that that doesn't help.
