I've got a problem vacuuming a table and can't seem to find a way to 
fix it...

Postgres version?

AFAIR, all known causes of this are fixed in 7.2.4.

Oops, sorry:                              version                               
---------------------------------------------------------------------PostgreSQL 7.2.3 on i386-unknown-freebsd4.5,
compiledby GCC 2.95.3
 

If I upgrade to 7.2.4 will that fix the problem or just fix a bug 
that would cause that problem?

It should make the problem go away --- the on-disk configuration is
legitimate, it's just VACUUM that's getting confused.  (Unless you
have some new variant of this issue that we haven't seen before.)
