I couldn't reproduce this at all on Fedora 8.  I speculate that you've
not told us enough about the configuration you're using.  Given that the
crash doesn't happen until after "connection authorized" is logged, it
seems likely that the problem is not purely GSSAPI's fault but is an
interaction with some other option that I happen not to be using.
Please show your configure options and all non-default postgresql.conf
settings.

BTW, I couldn't get GSSAPI to work at all without a fully-specified -h
option; it kept trying to use the wrong Kerberos principal names.
I wonder whether that is related --- how did you persuade it to do the
above?  Special sauce in krb5.conf maybe?
