I'm sorry, I meant to say save a copy of
pg_attribute_relid_attnum_index.  The correct filename for it can be
found via
select relfilenode from pg_class where relname = 'pg_attribute_relid_attnum_index';

Do you have more than one such table (presumably in different schemas)?
If so this isn't scary at all.  I don't believe oid2name has been fixed
to be schema-aware :-(
