Adding a user without expiration date using pgAdmin III causes postgresql Beta1 to crash - Mailing list pgsql-bugs

Hoi,

I have just installed Postgresql Beta 1 on a new Windows 7 64-bit system
(without a previously installed PostgreSQL).

When using pgAdmin III (included in the installer package) to create a
user (Login Role) postgresql crashes.

This does not occur when I also set an expiration date on that user.

OS: Windows 7 64-bit
PostgreSQL version: PostgreSQL 9.1beta1, compiled by Visual C++ build
1500, 64-bit

Steps to reproduce:
- Download PostgreSQL via Download 9.1 Beta 1 installers
<http://www.enterprisedb.com/products-services-training/pgdevdownload>(offsite
link) on the PostgreSQL website
- install PostgreSQL (not upgrade)
- start pgAdmin
- connect to the server
- right-click on Login Roles
- select New login role...
- fill in
    Role name
    Password
    Password (again)
- OK can now be clicked - click OK

You now see an error dialog (server closed the connection unexpectedly)
This is because the server has crashed.

Even though it's probably pgAdmin sending an illegal statement to the
server I think the major problem
here is that it causes the server to crash.
