Now, when running the 9.6 server the following error message shows up regularly in the log:

As far as I understand the following remark in the release notes, the column 'waiting' should not exist:
Improve the pg_stat_activity view's information about what a process is waiting for (Amit Kapila, Ildus Kurbangaliev)
Historically a process has only been shown as waiting if it was waiting for a heavyweight lock. Now waits for lightweight locks and buffer pins are also shown in pg_stat_activity. Also, the type of lock being waited for is now visible. These changes replace the waiting column with wait_event_type and wait_event.
How do I correct this?
are you running some sort of monitoring software thats periodically looking at pg_stat_activity ? whatever query its doing needs to be rewritten to take into account the pg_stat_activity changes in 9.6
