Andres- I did confirm that if you run a manual vacuum on a table in the oldest database but NOT the oldest table, the problem does resolve itself.

I've attached logfiles that might be easier to read. We are going to try and recreate the issue, in the meantime, I've turned on DEBUG1 and when it reoccurs, I'll run the queries in the "What Is" section as well. I also have a backtrace of the autovac launcher, but there appears to be nothing useful at all there (as you'd probably expect) and there were no autovac workers running.
