I can't guarantee whether i was or not :( right now, I'm assuming that
'other transactions' would include any database on that server, not just
the database that I was vacuuming at the time, as even if I go in and do a
vacuum on 'template1', that error pops up ...

It says to 'recreate the index', but if I try to, it tells me its a system
table (of course) ... is there a way of fixing this without having to do
a dump/reload?
