What is signal 5 in XP?  I looked in the MinGW source used to build
PostgreSQL 8.1.4 and there is no mention of a signal 5 there.  I see
signal 5 mentioned here:

        http://archives.postgresql.org/pgsql-bugs/2004-11/msg00175.php

and it was diagnosed as an invalid memory access.

I suggest you upgrade to the newest release of 8.1.X, 8.1.9.  It does
not require you to dump your database.  This might fix it:

        ftp://ftp5.ca.postgresql.org/mirrors/postgresql/binary/v8.1.9/win32
