Hmmm ... I guess I should have stopped to read the code a little closer: >> Breakpoint 1, ST_Geometry_Recv (fcinfo=0xbfffcb90) at binary.c:138 >> 138 StringInfo src_buf = (StringInfo) > PG_DETOAST_DATUM(PG_GETARG_DATUM(0)); Where did you get that from? Receive functions are supposed to do this: StringInfo buf = (StringInfo) PG_GETARG_POINTER(0); StringInfos aren't a toastable datatype. The loss of control probably represents the toast code throwing an error ... regards, tom lane
