Upgrading 8.0b1 to 8.0b2 in place.
Did I have to do a dump/restore?
Or is this a known problem?

Quick followup...The 8.0 db was only written to by slon
processes. This problem was replicated by someone else
as well.

The stomp around was to initdb in 8.0b2 and reset up
slony :-(

No, but I think you need a pg_resetxlog.
