meaning of backend exit code 2?
I have a need to find out the meaning of a backend exiting unexpectedly with
exit code 2. Leafing through the source of 8.1 I can't really find it.
Is there anything in postgres which would exit with code 2, or should I be
looking at libraries and junk dragged in by languages?

But are you running 8.1? In 8.2 and up this is the expected result from
SIGQUIT.

Yes, I'm running 8.1.9. I have a strong suspicion that the exit is coming
either from R via pl/R or from perl via pl/perl. From my reading of the
code, expected backend exit codes are 1, 0, and -1 mainly?
