But, have you done this at all. It sounds like the index on pg_proc has
gotten corrupted. If this is the case you have one of two options:
1. recreate the database, thereby updating the index.
or
2. figure out how to recreate the index and just drop it. A
good place to look to figure that out would be initdb, but I would
recommend trying it out on a production database. In fact I'd use a
whole different machine.
Well, don't know if this will help or hurt, but here it is.
