Okay, so you have a corrupted tuple --- from the evidence so far I'd
guess that the length word of the first column in that row is clobbered.
The wacky OIDs in some of the other rows look like data corruption too.
At this point my thoughts are heading in the direction of hardware
problems. Have you tried running any memory or disk diagnostics?
memtest86 and badblocks seem to be the most widely used tests.
