See if you have a file called global/pg_database in your data directory. It
should be plain text, and contain a list of all the databases that exist. One
of them is probably called "template1", and you should be able to connect to
that. Note that 7.3 is awfully old, and you're unlikly to get much support for
it beyond "Upgrade immediately if not sooner."
