Thanks heaps Tom,
I can confirm corrupt db upgrades fine with pg_dump. Was wondering if
there are any plans to add a --no-validate to pg_upgrade, since the
crash seems only to happen during validation.
Hmm, so I am still unclear on this. The 'corrupt' database is the one
you upgraded away from or to? If to I am not sure you have solved
anything. For the sake of discussion I am assuming you did a pg_dump on
the 9.2 instance and a restore on the 9.3 instance. Is this correct?
Cheers
Sam

It's hard to explain that as anything except corrupted system catalogs
in your existing database :-(. If you were really lucky, reindexing
pg_operator would fix it; but since pg_operator is usually pretty static,
it seems unlikely that it suffered index corruption.
Any way to work around this?
Rather than relying on pg_upgrade, you could try using pg_dump(all)
to extract the data. With some luck, pg_dump wouldn't be affected by
whatever has happened to the pg_operator catalog.
