i had considered pg_dump. i was hoping there was a utility similar
to fsck that could check for corruption. i'd like to verify now that
the data is ok, rather than coming across errors in 6 months time.
i'm going to go a vacuum full, and a pg_dump. at least that should
mean all the data is accessible.
