While it's consistently crashing my Pg 9 on win7 32-bit, too, I haven't
been able to get a backtrace yet. I thought it'd be trivial given the
ease of reproducing the crash - but the process that's crashing isn't
the backend running the query.

It looks like it's one of the helpers like the stats collector, autovac,
bgwriter, etc. I'm unsure which yet. I've had to go to work, so I won't
be able to pick it up again until much later today. When I get back I'll
turn the logging right up, set windbg up as the post-mortem debugger and
catch it that way.

I'm currently testing to see if I can reproduce the issue under linux as
well.
