Ok in fact, the times weird thing were because I copied the data dir on a 64 bits arch and it went from a 32 bit arch. On the 32 bit one :
pg_control version number: 812
Catalog version number: 200510211
Database system identifier: 4989617165674917617
Database cluster state: in production
pg_control last modified: Mon 04 Feb 2008 20:43:33 CET
Current log file ID: 0
Next log file segment: 34
Latest checkpoint location: 0/2109832C
Prior checkpoint location: 0/210982E8
Latest checkpoint's REDO location: 0/2109832C
Latest checkpoint's UNDO location: 0/0
Latest checkpoint's TimeLineID: 1
Latest checkpoint's NextXID: 1315262
Latest checkpoint's NextOID: 34543
Latest checkpoint's NextMultiXactId: 1
Latest checkpoint's NextMultiOffset: 0
Time of latest checkpoint: Mon 04 Feb 2008 20:05:40 CET
Maximum data alignment: 4
Database block size: 8192
Blocks per segment of large relation: 131072
Bytes per WAL segment: 16777216
Maximum length of identifiers: 64
Maximum columns in an index: 32
Date/time type storage: 64-bit integers
Maximum length of locale name: 128
LC_COLLATE: fr_FR.utf8
LC_CTYPE: fr_FR.utf8
Everything seems ok but I still can't see 99% of my data. No error msg, nothing special, just a ton of relations does not exist and empty or almost empty tables.

What's the full pg_controldata output? Can you send the pg_control file
as a binary attachment?
