I think you are in luck: this looks like the corrupted data is in one of the
indexes on pg_class, so you should be able to recover by reindexing.
See the man page for REINDEX for the gory details of doing this (you need the
"ignore system indexes" option, and maybe some other pushups depending on your
Postgres version).
