In the future, please include subjects in your posts.

Your compiler is segfaulting. This suggests a problem with the
compiler, rather than the code it's compiling.

SuSE has a bug [0] for segfaulting compilers, but it may not be related
to the problem you're experiencing.

Also, the current PostgreSQL source at doxygen.postgresql.org [1]
doesn't show a line 55 for dynalloc2.pgc. Could you show us what's
around that line?

Would you also show the full output of "gcc -v"?
