Can you reproduce this with a more recent version of 8.3 (8.3.7 is current).

A bit of googling suggests this is STATUS_DLL_INIT_FAILED, and although
I'm not a Windows expert I'd expect that to be an error you only see on
startup, rather than after PostgreSQL has been running for a while.
Could it be an anti-virus package interfering?
Do you have any more information on the situation? Are the machines
running XP/Vista/Server 2003? Do you only see it on 32/64-bit? Do some
machines show this problem while others are OK?
