pg_upgrade problem

hi

I have 8.3.11 database, ~ 600GB in size.

I want to upgrade it to 9.0.

First, I tried with 9.0.4, and when I hit problem (the same) I tried
git, head of 9.0 branch.

So. I did pg_upgrade with -c, and it looked like this:

$ time pg_upgrade -c -v -b /opt/pgsql-8.3.11-int/bin/ -B /opt/pgsql-9.0.5a-int/bin/ -d /var/postgresql/6666/ -D /var/postgresql/6666-9.0 -k -l pg_upgrade.log -p 6666 -P 4329

All looks ok. So I ran the upgrade without -c:

Could not find 71637071 in old cluster

real 0m53.065s

What can be wrong? How can I fix it?

I don't care about current instance - it was just a test, but I need to
know how to make the upgrade actually work.

I did grep in generated log files for this value - 71637071, and found:

$ grep -C3 71637071 pg_upgrade*

One more thing - one of earlier tests actually worked through
pg_upgrade, but when running vacuumdb -az on newly started 9.0.4, I got
error about missing transaction/clog - don't remember exactly what it
was, though.
