Sorry, the actual error reported by CLUSTER is:

gpup=> cluster verbose tablename;
INFO:  clustering "dbname.tablename"
WARNING:  could not write block 12125253 of base/2651908/652397108
DETAIL:  Multiple failures --- write error might be permanent.
ERROR:  could not open file "base/2651908/652397108.1" (target block 12125253): No such file or directory
