This is coming out of src/backend/tcop/postgres.c; it looks like the
backend got a NULL character at the point where it expected to read
the first byte of a new command string from the frontend.
My guess is that the frontend and backend got out of sync. The easiest
way to make that happen is to mess up a COPY IN or COPY OUT sequence,
but it could also be that you have a broken frontend that's sending
garbage.
What frontend software are you using, anyway? And what version?
What were you doing *before* the command on which you noticed the
failure?
