Well, I ended up just using the pg_control file from the running
installation. The seemed to work in combination with pg_resetxlog but
now the restore is not working because the postmaster has a shutdown
timestamp of today's date and the recovery is thinking that it has
already recovered past the proper point in time. :(
Does anyone know how I can convince the postmaster to believe it was
shutdown at approximately the time the pg_dumpall happened?
Thank you all again for any assistance!
