The program you posted doesn't initialize i but I'd expect that to
result in a garbage value being inserted instead of a segmentation
fault. Do you still get a segmentation fault if you initialize i?
What about if you comment out the line that inserts i?

Your program doesn't return a value from main(). I haven't worked
on any platforms where that would cause a segmentation fault but it
should be fixed in any case.

What platform are you on? What version of PostgreSQL? Did you get
a core dump? If so, what does a stack trace show? What do you see
if you add "ECPGdebug(1, stderr);" at the beginning of the program?
