A reboot does not help -- it still fails. I recompiled at GCC 3.1 and it's failing at pltcl load again. I rebooted, then tried to add the languages again. plpgsql was already loaded from the last time, but shared memory failed again when it tried to load pltcl.
ipcs isn't installed on Panther. Strangely though, I've found ipcs in the Darwin source tree (previous version) under /usr/bin, and in the same place in FreeBSD source tree.
/s.

Here's the real problem --- why are you getting a SIGBUS while trying to
load the pltcl handler function? I suspect something broken in Tcl's
shared library, but dunno what. You should be getting a core file from
the crashed process --- can you get a stack trace from it with gdb?
FATAL: could not create shared memory segment: Cannot allocate memory DETAIL: Failed system call was shmget(key=5432001, size=3809280, 03600).
This is evidently happening during attempted restart after the backend crash. I suspect it is a matter of the OS not having released the old memory segment yet, together with the SHMMAX limit being too tight to allow two such segments to exist concurrently. Are you able to start the server by hand immediately afterwards, or a few seconds afterwards? Or do you have to reboot before it will restart?
