This is a crash all right, but I think we fixed a certain number of bugs
after 8.1.0 was released. Please install 8.1.9, and if it still
crashes, report again. (We'll be wanting to see stack traces at that
point, so please make sure you are using a debug-enabled build, and a
non-zero coresize ulimit setting).

FWIW the core files should be stored in the data directories (PGDATA).
