Oh, okay.  What I saw was that the next nextval() after restart was
higher than what I was expecting; but that's correct given the prefetch
behavior.

But we've seen several reports wherein the value appeared to go
backwards after a crash.

Stuart, you weren't running with -F (fsync off) by any chance, were you?
