Confirmed here.  I configured Postgresql to handle 200 connections and used a perl test script to open multiple
connectionsto the database.  The postmaster crashes consistently when the 182nd connection is opened. 

select version();
"PostgreSQL 8.1.4 on i686-pc-mingw32, compiled by GCC gcc.exe (GCC) 3.4.2 (mingw-special)"

Actually, it looks like the backend that handles the connection is the culprit and not the poastmaster.  Sorry for the
incorrectinfo.
