You mean that I upgraded without restarting postgres before the segfault?

Before this I have had the same problem with Ubuntu 14.04 with postgresql 9.5.3 from a ppa. I then tried building a new
VMbased on Ubuntu 16.04 on the 3rd of June to see if there was something wrong with the slave VM. So it's a clean
installwhere I installed latest postgresql once and ran it. I've reproduced the problem three times since that happened
withone reboot in between. Of course what hasn't changed during all of this is the master. 

The version of postgresql-client-9.5, libpq5, postgreql-9.5, postgresql-contrib-9.5 and postgresql-9.5-dbg are all at
9.5.3-0ubuntu0.16.04.
