That sounds like you have symbols now for the system libraries, but not
postgresql itself.

Best guess from here is that you managed to run into some sort of
cache-reload bug; those are very sensitive to concurrent operations
since you only see them when a shared cache inval event happens at
just the wrong time.  I would recommend an update to 8.4.4 since we
did stomp two or three critters of that ilk in the last few months,
but I can't really guarantee that we found the one that bit you.

While you're at it, please try to make sure you install a non-symbol-
stripped version of 8.4.4.  If it does happen again, at least you'll
be prepared to collect more data.
