I have upgradede Debian 2.0 to 2.1 and the problem mysteriously gone
away!
I am using the word "mysteriously" because:
-- I have not upgraded kernel (yet) - I am still running 2.0.34
-- I have not upgraded glibc2 - both 2.0 and 2.1 are based upon libc-2.0.7
-- I have not upgraded nor recompiled postgres.
Yes, this fix my problem, but what next? It seems suspicious to me, so I
can expect other glibc2-related problems.
BTW, I already reported yet another problem with glibc2 - bug with
complex join (actually, not so complex - 4 tables). I overcame the error by
rewriting the query into correlated subquery with EXISTS. I'll test if
Debian upgrade "mysteriously" fix the problem too.
Oleg.
