Well, there are still many things left out, like how many times you call
this function before it fails.  Even then, I suspect the bug is in the
pthread code that comes with your operating system -- or perhaps on the
patches that the port applies to Postgres.

(For the record, I filled the missing pieces in your program and made
SQLLog loop 100000 times, which it did without a hitch.  Next time,
please submit a complete program, not just pieces of it.)
