The following bug has been logged on the website:

Bug reference:      14531
Logged by:          Naveen Chalmeti
Email address:      naveenallin@gmail.com
PostgreSQL version: 9.6.1
Operating system:   Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS
Description:

We are facing frequent crash issue in postgresql due to segmentation fault.
We have tried various ways to debug the issue such as enabling debug level
log etc., but we could not get any idea what is the reason behind the crash.
During the crash we have got a system crash file and extracted to get the
back trace. Unluckily we are using postgres release binary using which we
cannot get the full pledged back trace.

Rough Backtrace:
