I've already been talking to Jerry off-list, and I trust he's managed
to recover his data --- but for the archives, the answer to this is to
hack up contrib/pg_resetxlog to force whatever data you need into the
pg_control file.
It is an *extremely* good idea to back up your whole $PGDATA directory
tree (with tar or some such) before attempting such desperate measures,
so that you can undo any self-inflicted damage if you get it wrong...
