Have you done more to this table than TRUNCATE it?

We recognized relatively recently that ALTER DROP COLUMN could drop the
last/only variable-width column, in which case there is no longer any
need for a TOAST table.  The 8.0 code for CLUSTER/TRUNCATE copes with
this possibility but 7.4 doesn't.

I'm quite sure you couldn't get this error from anything except CLUSTER
or TRUNCATE in 7.4 though.  Seems like your client-side code is in error
to be fingering a plain SELECT as the cause.
