Re-indexing didn't seem to help but optimizedb did.  Sysmod failed after 
running optimizedb thinking there was still an exclusive lock being held 
somewhere, but bouncing ingres and running sysmod again worked.

I'm not sure how worried I should be about this.  Complete 
unload/reload, unload/destroydb/createdb/reload, or just watch and make 
sure there on no issues going forward.
