If you want to poke at it, I'd suggest changing the ERROR to PANIC
(it's in bufmgr.c) to cause a core dump, run installchecks till you
get a panic, and then look around in the dump to see what you can find.
It'd be particularly interesting to see what the buffer actually
contains.  Also you could look at the corresponding page of the disk
file (which in theory should be the same as the buffer contents,
since this error check is only made just after a read() ...)

Hmm, I'll give it a go when I'm back in the office, but bear in mind
this is a Mingw build on which debugging is nigh-on impossible.

I was afraid of that.  Well, at least get a dump of page 104 in that
index so we can see what's on-disk.

Sure - I'll have to try with 8.1/8.2 unless you have a pg_filedump that'll work with -HEAD?
