PostgreSQL version: 8.2.5 and 8.1.9
Operating system: CentOS 5 and Xubuntu 7.04
Description: Server crashes when trying to create a table
Details:

I have a plpgsql function which creates a table with following line:

CREATE TABLE vertices_tmp(id serial);

It's working fine with PostgreSQL 8.2.4 but crashes with segfault at
versions 8.1.9 and 8.2.5.

Here is a piece of log file:
