The return from malloc should be checked to make sure it succeeds - right???


Probably, but what do you expect the code to do if it doesn't succeed?
This function seems not to have any defined error-return convention.

Retry - the malloc - maybe there is a memory leak when --enable-thread-saftey is enabled, send an out of memory message to the postgres log, abort the transaction - I don't know I am not a postgres developer so I don't know all the issues. I all I know as a user having a program like postgres just sig 11 is unacceptable! As a commercial developer of software for over 30 years
I would never just do nothing.
