Yeah, that's what it looks like to me --- autovacuum just a bit too
quick to give up.  You could've just restarted autovacuum once the
database was up.

In 7.5 I think autovacuum will be integrated, and the postmaster won't
bother to start it till the startup sequence is done, so this won't
be an issue.
