So I think you are saying that although none of my tables have the circle type,
there are inherent Postgres functions and
operators which use circle. By running the regression test, I could find out
which functions and operators these are and just drop them. Is the vacuum
crapping out then because it is trying to vacuum one of these functions and
finding that OID 718 doesn't exist?

Thanks.
