I don't remember why I insisted talking about multixacts in that thread,
but seeing that both the poster in the 2007 thread and you have problems
with the pg_subtrans directory, not pg_multixact, these "symptoms"
actually mean nothing at all.  pg_subtrans and pg_multixact are
unrelated.

I wonder if there's an off-by-one bug in SimpleLruTruncate, or perhaps
the "cutoffPage" value passed by the caller is bogus once every ten blue
moons ... hmm, it comes from GetOldestXmin ...

Being more explicit in that error message (logging the cutoffPage) would
help figuring out what's going on.
