IIRC, it's an order-of-operations mistake during backend shutdown: the
proc structure is deallocated while it's still possible to receive an
interrupt from another backend --- and if you get such an interrupt, you
need the proc. So from the user's point of view it's pretty
unpredictable.
Short answer: upgrade. This is not the only nasty bug in 7.2.1.
