This doesn't help that much, for sure you are trying to perform an operation
that crash the backend, are you using a store procedure in C, are you using
third part contrib modules ? Could be also interesting see the postgresql log
at the time of crash in order to see what you were doing.

This is normal if you try to reconnect the DB immediately after the error above,
this because the engine perform a recovery after have close all connections.
