I was attempting to dump my database (6.4.2) in preparation for an
upgrade to 6.5.1. I got the following error, both with and without
the `-z'. Any suggestions are welcome....

That's odd. You didn't do something silly like dropping the function
definition for plpgsql_call_handler, did you?

Anyway, I think you can get rid of the broken table entry by doing
drop procedural language 'plpgsql';
but first you might want to see whether there are any functions
that depend on it:
select proname from pg_proc, pg_language pl
where prolang = pl.oid and lanname = 'plpgsql';
If there are, you'll need to drop them too...

I don't think so. When I originally installed 6.4.2, I did it from
the source RPM. I then loaded the plpgsql language support manually
from the suppplied script.

This show not procedures; I remember defining some, but perhaps I
dropped them after experimenting.

Thanks!
