I was able to set gdb to the pid of  psql  session and saw that selects 
on the "bad" views segfaulted on pfree()
The documentation for SRF had a comment that said pfree() was not really 
necessary so I commented that code out and now I can select all the 
views. :) 
Perhaps you can advise me on why pfree() would segfault on 8.0 in but 
not 7.4

Anyway the .so generated views are working now as they were on 7.4.
Thanks for your help. Tim


Not sure what all this means but the following lines were gleaned from 
the core dump

cannot allocate memory for thread-local data: ABORT

And Here is what gdb says about the core
