ok I updated the rows by relname individually so I could limit issues
should I screw it up.

I can now get a dump of the db but still cannot drop the two tables I
added. I get a different message now :

elevating=# \d diag_logs;
Table "diag_logs"
Column | Type |
Modifiers
---------+------------------------+---------------------------------------------------------------
sernum | integer | not null default
nextval('public.diag_logs_sernum_seq'::text)
display | integer | not null
tdate | date | not null
ttime | time without time zone | not null
tstatus | smallint | not null
ttype | smallint | not null
Indexes: diag_logs_display,
diag_logs_tdate,
diag_logs_tstatus
Primary key: diag_logs_pkey

elevating=# drop table diag_logs;
ERROR: could not find tuple for constraint 2041954

and

elevating=# \d test_types;
Table "test_types"
Column | Type | Modifiers
----------------+---------------+--------------------
num | smallint | not null
progname | character(25) | not null
severity_level | smallint | not null default 1
Primary key: test_types_pkey

elevating=# drop table test_types;
ERROR: could not find tuple for constraint 2041971
elevating=#

I can find no reference to these oids anywhere.

I wasgonig to restart postmaster incase something is cached but I hate
to since I don't know if it will restart properly.

TIA
