Same comment as I was about to make for your other message: "it fails"
is hardly an adequate description, especially for such a peculiar
behavior as this.  What error message do you get, *exactly*?
If there's a crash, what shows up in the postmaster log, and can you get
a backtrace from the core dump?

BTW, is it possible that your two windows are talking to two different
Postgres installations?  A sufficiently old Postgres wouldn't have
SERIAL, I think.
