This is driving me crazy.  I have some Postgres C function extensions in a

gets this message:
   *** glibc detected *** postgres: mydb mydb [local] idle: double free or 
corruption! (!prev): 0x08bfcde8

Have you tried attaching to one of these processes with gdb to see where
it ends up?  Have you checked to see if the processes are becoming
multi-threaded?
