Kevin,
That did it. Doing the command ulimit -c unlimited worked!
Thanks,
Lance

If running this shows a limit (especially zero):
ulimit -c
then run this in your shell before running psql:
ulimit -c unlimited
Look for a core file in your current directory after the failure.
If you get one, try running:
gdb --core=YOURCOREFILENAME
Once gdb is running, type:
bt
and post the results.
