I am thinking it would be useful for debugging if elog(PANIC) were to exit by calling abort() so that a core dump would be produced.
Going out via proc_exit(), as it now does, seems like a bad idea in any case, since that will try to do a bunch of cleanup activity that's probably inappropriate after a panic.
