What this looks like at first glance is a bug in the PAM module you're
using, since Postgres really has no idea which PAM configuration is
being invoked. Can you get a stack trace to narrow down where the sig11
is happening? (You will probably need to insert "ulimit -c unlimited"
into the .bash_profile for Postgres to get the postmaster into a context
where it will produce a core dump.)
Also, is this your own build of Postgres, or if not whose?
