That's just bizarre. How can you get a network timeout over the
loopback address?
Your data modem is probably doing something funky to your network
stack, but I don't know what. Can you connect to PostgreSQL over a
UNIX socket when the system is in this state? Does stuff continue to
show up in the log file? (e.g. If you send the postmaster a SIGTERM
while it's like this, do you see shutdown messages?)
