I've seen this before.  It was bad RAM.  I bet it's a hardware problem
for you as well... either bad RAM or a flaky disk.

In my case, I found it out because I got syntax errors in the
PostgreSQL logs: SELGCT was not a valid keyword.  It turns out
that the flaky RAM was flipping bit 1 occasionally, so it would
randomly add or subtract 2 from a byte.

Regards,

David.
