Hey guys, I'm burning in some new hardware and just reached the
pull-the-plug phase of testing. On restart, I see this:

2007-06-06 12:04:00 PDT LOG: database system was interrupted at 2007-06-06 11:53:56 PDT
2007-06-06 12:04:00 PDT LOG: checkpoint record is at 24/C29ED068

2007-06-06 12:04:00 PDT LOG: redo starts at 24/BEF3C3A8
2007-06-06 12:18:03 PDT LOG: unexpected pageaddr 24/9D6DC000 in log file 36, segment 224, offset 7192576
2007-06-06 12:18:03 PDT LOG: redo done at 24/E06DB210
2007-06-06 12:20:21 PDT LOG: database system is ready

That "unexpected pageaddr" line seems bad to me, especially seeing as how
this is on a battery-backed hardware raid with drive write caches
supposedly disabled. Should I expect to see such lines anyway after a
sudden power loss?
