So pg_dump seems off the hook. Can you run the query, attach to the
backend with gdb, and see what it's doing?
As stated on another message tried a ktrace and got nothing.
Trying with gdb.
Is this what you need?

That was right after entering gdb
Stepping through produced this:
Single stepping until exit from function index_getnext,
which has no line number information.
0x08123aec in ExecReScanHashJoin ()
(gdb) step
Single stepping until exit from function ExecReScanHashJoin,
which has no line number information.
0x0811d545 in ExecScan ()
(gdb) step
Single stepping until exit from function ExecScan,
which has no line number information.
0x081239fc in ExecReScanHashJoin ()
(gdb) step
Single stepping until exit from function ExecReScanHashJoin,
which has no line number information.
At that point it seemed to freeze (gdb) so I did a ktrace on it.
There is a lot of output but some of it is:
47645 gdb RET sigaction 0
47645 gdb CALL wait4(0xffffffff,0xbfbfe538,0,0)
47645 gdb RET wait4 47637/0xba15

47645 gdb RET ptrace 0
Is this of any help? Something else I need to try?
