OK, that crash should be leaving a core file --- try to get a stack
trace from the core and post it here.  If you didn't already configure
with --enable-debug, do so and rebuild, else the trace won't be very
useful.  If you're not familar with gdb, the basic idea is

    $ gdb /path/to/postgres-executable /path/to/corefile
    gdb> bt
    gdb> q

            regards, tom lane
