What values exactly ... particularly the OID?

Certainly not!  That was just an experiment to see if your problem was
corruption of the indexes on pg_class.  Seems like not.

Hmm ... but you're *sure* "where oid = 16896" can't find this row,
even with enable_indexscan = off?  That doesn't make a lot of sense.

To cut to the chase, though: try "REINDEX pg_class" and see if it helps.
