Well, that's pretty clearly a null pointer dereference. Any chance of
mapping the instruction address back to something useful?

This being a psql-side crash, it couldn't be related to the symptom
we saw before of initdb not finding postgres.exe. I'm starting to
wonder if maybe that machine has suddenly developed an intermittent
memory fault or some such. Have you noticed any other flaky behavior?
