I brought my snapshot up-to-date this morning, recompiled everything and
tried to connect to my test database that is about a month old. I can
ï¿½select * from pg_attributeï¿½ without a problem. But hitting ï¿½\zï¿½ in psql
causes the transfer to be closed. Other psql options like ï¿½\dï¿½ work fine.

Yeah, you need a dump/reload for anything built earlier than a week or
so ago. Last-minute but wildly helpful cleanups of pg_operator from Tom
Lane...

FWIW, \z works fine for me.  Did you do an initdb after updating?
There were some catalog changes as late as last week.
