2004-02-21 12:52:49 NOTICE: Message from PostgreSQL backend:
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.
Please reconnect to the database system and repeat your query.
The notice is repeated 8 times.
I have set "ulimit -c coredumpsize", but I don't get a core dump.
