Signal 11 is SIGSEGV on most Unixen (certainly including Linux), so the
backend is certainly crashing. If you are not getting core files in
the $PGDATA/base/yourdbnumber/ directory, then I'd bet that the
postmaster is being started under "ulimit -c 0" conditions. Restart
it with "ulimit -c unlimited" environment and you should get a core.
