After working a while with postgresql 7.0.2 from redhat 7.0, with upgrates
at glibc 2.2.2 and a few other improvements, i have kernel 2.2.17 from rh
7.0 updates.
And today my postmaster died with :

The Postmaster has informed me that some other backend died abnormally and
possibly corrupted shared memory.
        I have rolled back the current transaction and am going to
terminate your database system connection and exit.

and i wasn't able to start again.

Escuze me, I have find out more, the database still working, but take some
time after that query. i have 2 querys from php.

$mumu = pg_exec ($conn, "SELECT idl,datapromulgari,tipdocument,denumirea
from ldi where categoria=" . $categorie. " and denumirea LIKE '%" .
$denumirea . "%' and substr(dataemiterii,1,2) LIKE '%" . $luna ."%' and
substr(dataemiterii,3,2) LIKE '%" . $zi . "%' and substr(dataemiterii,5,4)
LIKE '%" . $an . "%' and descriere LIKE '%" . $descriere . "%' and
organemitent LIKE '%" . chop($organ) . "%' and publicat LIKE '%" .
chop($tippub) ."%' and tipdocument LIKE '%"  . chop($tipdoc). "%' order by
to_date(dataemiterii,'MMDDYYYY') ASC LIMIT "  . $nrlegi . "," . $nr );

first is working.

        $mimuv = pg_exec ($conn, "SELECT idl from ldi where categoria=" .
$categorie. " and denumirea LIKE '%" . $denumirea . "%' and
substr(dataemiterii,1,2) LIKE '%" . $luna ."%' and
substr(dataemiterii,3,2) LIKE '%" . $zi . "%' and substr(dataemiterii,5,4)
LIKE '%" . $an . "%' and descriere LIKE '%" . $descriere . "%' and
organemitent LIKE '%" . chop($organ) . "%' and publicat LIKE '%" .
chop($tippub) ."%' and tipdocument LIKE '%" . chop($tipdoc). "%'" );

second executed after first, give me the error message.

Possibly you are running into the LIKE-at-end-of-memory bug identified
last July (see rev 1.37 at
http://www.postgresql.org/cgi/cvsweb.cgi/pgsql/src/backend/utils/adt/like.c).
Please update to 7.0.3 ... or even better, 7.1, but 7.0.3 wouldn't force
you into a database dump/reload ... and see if you still see the
problem.

Backtrace from crashed backend's core file, please?

Why not?  The log extract you give shows the postmaster recovering
perfectly normally.

Try the postgresql packages from Red Hat Linux 7.1.
