That's pretty hard to believe (we've not had a postmaster-crashing bug
in a long time), and it's even harder to believe that the symptoms would
be as you describe if it did.  if the postmaster wasn't there, psql
connection attempts would fail immediately with "connection refused" or
similar messages.
