Can you provide the exact error message, as well as the version of
PostgreSQL you're using and any relevant OS version details.
Also, it sounds like PostgreSQL might be dumping core. If that's the
case, providing a backtrace from the core file (using gdb) would be
helpful. It would be especially helpful if you could recompile
PostgreSQL with debugging symbols (./configure --enable-debug) and get a
backtrace after that.
Cheers,
Neil
