Yeah, maybe we should make it put the failed table at the end of the
list, for the next run.  This is not simple to implement, if only
because autovac workers don't have any way to persist state from one run
to the next.  But this kind of thing causes enough problems that it's
probably worth it.

One thing to keep in mind, though, is that a persistent error in a
single table is enough to keep a database's datfrozenxid from advancing,
and thus shut down in case the wraparound horizon comes too close.  So
perhaps what we need is more visibility into autovacuum problems.

+1 for the latter.  A recurrent vacuum failure is something that needs
to be dealt with ASAP, not partially-worked-around.

I am revisiting invalid page header cases due to my problem explained in another recent post from me. I am not tracing development process too closely. But, as I can see the 9.0 is almost out, let me ask here if this problem has been taken care of?
