AFAICS we only execute VACUUM FREEZE on it, so we shouldn't leave any
unfrozen tuples.

Nope. Have never touched template0...haven't made any changes to pg_hba.conf (which is how I assume you would make template0 connectable) until last night when we determined that template0 might be at fault and we were going to run pg_filedump on it to see if we could find anything useful.

I assume this is similar/identical to this issue:

Any ideas on how should I move forward?
