These both look like the pg_user view is corrupted.
It seems hard to believe that identical corruption could have affected
two databases at once. Do you see this same problem with all your
databases (if you have any more than template1 and cinema)? If so,
I wonder whether the postgres executable got corrupted --- it'd not be
very common for a system failure to corrupt files that aren't being
modified, but perhaps it could happen. If it is that, you could fix it
with a quick reinstall of the RPM.
