How is it possibile to check if autovacuum is running in 8.1.x? "Show Autovacuum" gives me on and also i see evidence in logs where autovacuum writes "LOG: autovacuum: processing database xxxx". However i have no idea of what tables the autovacuum daemon is processing because there aren't autovacuum info columns on pg_stat_all_tables (as there are for 8.2.x). Also I'm asking this because the size of the pg_clog is >200M and I am worried about possible transaction ID wraparound failures...
