For server crashes you can't beat gdb in my opinion. It's a challenge but
worth it in the long run to have gdb skills if you're coding in C (or
Python, since pdb shares many of gdb's keybindings).
But just looking at the function I don't see what's immediately wrong,
what's your CREATE FUNCTION statement look like?
