AFAICS these two crashes have nothing to do with one another.

(BTW, pfree() is *not* a macro on top of free().)
You've posted the stack backtrace from your 7.2.3 crash in the past, but
AFAIK no one has followed up on it. Could you see if you can reproduce
the problem in 7.3, and if you can get a backtrace from a core dump
produced by a version of PostgreSQL with debugging symbols? (./configure
--enable-debug).
Cheers,
Neil
