This looks like you have corrupted data in your table --- specifically,
a variable-length value with a bogus length word. If so, you'll get a
similar error during any attempt to access the particular value or row
that's corrupted. A quick check of this theory is to try to pg_dump
the table --- if it fails with the same sort of error, then you have
a problem.

2.96? AFAICT 2.95.3 is the latest official release of GCC.
