That's a lot of data - somewhere around 43GB at the moment. And pg_dump seems 
to fail altogether on the affected databases, so the pg_clog issue actually 
means that I cannot make any current backups.

Tried that, but it also makes PostgreSQL crash, so no luck there either. I also 
dropped template0, recreated it from template1, did a VACUUM FREEZE on it, 
marked it as template again and disallowed connections.

Yes, but that'll be a nightshift and I need some way to actually get at a 
working dump now...
