At this point I think you're dealing with a Gentoo-specific compiler bug. You need to report it to the appropriate channels in that project. You probably don't really want to hear this, but a lot of people around here consider Gentoo a poor choice for running servers. That distro's emphasis is on bleeding edge features/performance, which is an admirable goal, but you pay a price in stability. regards, tom lane ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 5: don't forget to increase your free space map settings
