The unexpected-EOF messages are probably unrelated to the crash. What
Postgres version are you running? There should be a corefile left from
the crashed backend --- can you get a stack trace from it? How about
running the postmaster with -d2 to log queries, so that you can see what
queries were being executed at the time of the crash?
