could not send data to server: Operation not supported

Hi:

A PHP script that is running every 30 minutes for three years has
crashed when updating a Postgres database table with this error message:

"pg_exec() query failed: could not send data to server: Operation not
supported"

I just ran it again and it worked fine. I could not find a single page
about this error in Google. This is the output of the logfile:

LOG: server process (PID 7069) was terminated by signal 11

WARNING: terminating connection because of crash of another server process
DETAIL: The postmaster has commanded this server process to roll back
the current transaction and exit, because another server process exited
abnormally and possibly corrupted shared memory.
HINT: In a moment you should be able to reconnect to the database and
repeat your command.
