While going through some log files, we noticed that some of the log entries
are "garbled". For example:

2007-03-27 01:19:44.139 UTC [1761474] oxrsa aepp xx.xx.xx.xx LOG:

Here are the logging sections in the postgresql.conf file:

log_destination = 'stderr'
redirect_stderr = on
log_directory = '/opt/rg/logs/pgsql81'
log_filename = 'postgresql-%Y-%m-%d_%H%M%S.log'
log_truncate_on_rotation = off
log_rotation_age = 1440
log_rotation_size = 10240
log_line_prefix = '%m [%p] %d %u %h ' # Special values:

We're seeing this in postgresql 8.1.8 on AIX 5.3. Also, even though we're
using the same binaries for a bunch of clusters, we've only seen this issue
on one of them.

Any ideas of what could cause this?
