So mount it...

If you're trying to say that the xlog is irretrievably hosed, then see
pg_resetxlog, and be prepared to spend some time checking to see if
anything got corrupted.  But first try to get your xlog back.

As you can see from the logs I sent, it didn't help

Well, apparently, the fs itself was badly corrupted (should'nt happen, I'm
using fsync + ODM mirroring)
So I ended up reinstalling every thing and restart all db from backups.

BTW, I still have statistics buffer full message (never very far from a
reclycling of log file) maybe it's just a conincidence
