No other tablespaces exists as can be seen in output of:
SELECT oid,spcname,spclocation,pg_size_pretty(pg_tablespace_size(spcname))  from
pg_tablespace;
  oid  |  spcname   |  spclocation  | pg_size_pretty
-------+------------+---------------+----------------
  1663 | pg_default |               | 21 MB
  1664 | pg_global  |               | 1092 kB
 16443 | main       | /db/base/main | 124 GB

However I seem to have found reason for such strange behavior.

That is a duplicating link in pg_tblspc:
postgres@db:~$ ls -la /var/lib/postgresql/9.0/main/pg_tblspc/
total 8
drwx------  2 postgres postgres 4096 Jun  3 04:08 .
drwx------ 12 postgres postgres 4096 Sep 28 17:08 ..
lrwxrwxrwx  1 postgres postgres   13 Jun  6 14:39 16384 -> /db/base/main
lrwxrwxrwx  1 postgres postgres   13 Jun  3 04:08 16443 -> /db/base/main

I have no idea how could this happen.
No crashes/power-offs and so on happens on that database for more then year.

Can the second (16384 -> /db/base/main) link be safely deleted?
