You could restore template1 from template0...

$ createdb -T template0 template1

I would suggest figuring out first why template1 got trashed, as
that's a pretty severe problem. It sounds to me as though something's
severely broken with your PostgreSQL binaries; you may want to check
the provenance of the code.

If you compiled it yourself, then checking where the compile has
gotten to is clearly in your hands; if it was installed in "packaged"
form, you should look into whether someone has corrupted it, and
how/why...
