So far as I can see from the discussion of #3995, there was absolutely
no reason to think there was any PG bug.  But you are following in the
footsteps of that reporter by (a) jumping to a conclusion about what
your problem is, and (b) providing absolutely zero concrete information
that would allow anyone to help you.

Please read

Also, you really should think about updating to a version of Postgres
that isn't many years obsolete.  Even if your problem did trace down
to being a PG bug, we are not going to fix it in 8.3.x.
