Hmm, that's pretty interesting.  Exit code 139 is presumably a SIGSEGV,
but it's surprising that it would get that far and then crash.

Please (1) rebuild with --enable-cassert and --enable-debug configure
options, if you didn't already; (2) set "ulimit -c unlimited" if that's
not the default in your environment; (3) run initdb with the --noclean
option; (4) look into /usr/local/pgsql/data to find the core file left
behind by the crash, and do
        $ gdb /usr/local/bin/postgres /path/to/core-file
        gdb> bt
        gdb> quit
(5) post the output of "bt" here.

BTW, what compiler version are you using exactly, and what compiler options?

                        regards, tom lane
