So any multiple occurence of parse errors crashes your
backend. Can you get coredump from the crashing backend (if
the postmaster is started from a shell where coresize limit
is unlimited you should find one in the database directory
after the crash)?

Could you then please produce a stack backtrace with gdb so
we might be able to track the problem down?

And please save the core file once you have it. We might have
further questions.
