It certainly seems like the one on datname must be corrupt, else it should have disallowed two such entries. You could try deleting the bogus row by selecting it by ctid instead of oid. Also see if you can REINDEX pg_database (this will only work in standalone mode I think). What PG version is this exactly? regards, tom lane
