You realize of course that 8.4.anything is long out of support, and
therefore full of known bugs.  But I wonder whether this is even a
reasonably late minor release of 8.4.

You might learn something productive from

select * from pg_proc where oid = '16292882';

The direct problem of course is that oid 16292881 can't be found
in pg_type.  If you're really lucky, that's just index corruption
that could be fixed by reindexing pg_type.
