PostgreSQL version: 7.4
Operating system: Freebsd 5.2.1
Description: listeners not cleaned on crash
Details:
When postgres sql 7.4.1
* crashes
* shutdown immediate
* kernel panics
After recovery, there are stalled entries in system catalogs which must
be removed by
delete from pg_catalog.pg_listener;
This is a very annoying bug if you are running slony1 replication system.
