I have some further info. 7.3.5 compiled with MIPSpro 7.4.1 is broken
with respect to the transaction log files. Restarting my 7.3.5 install
results in similar errors.
However, when compiled with gcc, 7.3.5 initdb works correctly. I'm
in the process of testing the import of the 7.3.2 database and running
some transactions to see if the restart works.
Also, PostgreSQL 7.4.1 compiled with MIPSpro 7.4.1 appears to work
(at least the regression test).
