Huh.  That would have generated SIGTERM, which should at least mostly be
safe.  We did recently fix a couple of problems with cleanup after
SIGTERM but they were both pretty low-probability risks.  Anyway,
you've definitely got issues now:

Try reindexing that index, and any other ones that you see complaints
about.

Well, that's just the fallout from a PANIC in some other session; if you
weren't watching the session that actually crashed, you need to look in
the postmaster log to see what went wrong.
