Solution to Bus error(coredump) from postgres binary

Hi,

I'm in the process of building Postgres 7.4.2 on a HP-UX PA Machine. I'm
in a stage where postgres builds properly, but when initdb is run, it is
resulting in a bus error/coredump. The core seems to come from postgres
binary. I tried to look further into this. The point of failure is the
trigger creation of pg_sync_pg_pwd. Please find the details captured
from the machine and the back trace of the core below. I see that there
have already been some mail thread discussion on this particular issue.
But I couldn't find the solution as such. Can you please help me in
fixing this and proceeding with the postgres installation? The
version/details of gcc I have used for compilation is as given below:

PA:/opt/sfmdb/pgsql/bin:>/usr/local/bin/gcc -v
Using built-in specs.
Target: hppa2.0w-hp-hpux11.23
