has anyone noticed that the backend still dies when you do a "\d" from
psql ? This is with 6.4.1 on bsdi 3.1

Hate to respond to myself, but Bruce noted that other people's \d on the
back end did not crash.

I had compiled postgres with shlicc2 which is the shared lib version of gcc2
on bsdi. That version was crashing the back end. I recompiled with the
default gcc2 and it works magnificently

Any clues ?
