This suggests that there's something wrong with the pg_user view ---
specifically, that the stored view rule isn't in the format that the
backend expects.
I don't recall ever having seen that error in the field, only in
development builds that someone had been sloppy about fully rebuilding
after a CVS update (so that the code inside the server wasn't fully
self-consistent). Where did you get your postgres executable from,
exactly?
Also, does "select * from pg_user" provoke the same error in every
database of your installation, or only this one? If the latter,
it could be a data-corruption kind of problem.
