Probably indicates a failure to load the plpgsql shared library.

There wasn't anything interesting just before that?

Signal 6 is SIGABRT (at least on my machine) so something decided to
abort() in that backend.  Postgres would abort() on assertion failure,
but it would have logged a message first.  My guess is that the shared
library loader did the abort(), and probably it griped on stderr rather
than to syslog.  Fix your postmaster startup arrangement so that stderr
goes someplace useful instead of to /dev/null, so you can see what it's
complaining about.
