Error restarting postmaster

Yesterday, one of the (replicated) remote databases I work with somehow got corrupted, so I attempted to drop a new copy off of the master (on a different box) and rebuild the database. Creation, language install, schema reload, all appeared to go well. On the actual data reload, I set the system aside and went on to something else, as the db takes a while to load. I came back to discover that the connection between my system and the one where the db was being rebuilt had been severed. Opening a new remote connection, I went in and attempted to rebuild the database, only to discover that neither postgres nor the postmaster was running. And when I attempted to restart the postmaster process, I received the following error:

postgres(at)district20:/usr/local/pgsql/bin> ./postmaster -D /usr/local/pgsql/data/

A google search on the Panic clause lead me to an old thread in the [Hackers] list, which looks like it was a similar problem, but I can't figure out from that thread how the problem was solved. Would someone please help me figure out what I need to do to correct this and get my database running again?
