I'm going to make a wild assed guess that the flexer / parser or
something it depends on in the database is corrupted.
You said in a later post that reinstalling an old backup made it work. Is
this a file level or pg_dump type backup? If it's a file level, that
would support my supposition that something in the system tables used by
the parser is corrupted. You might have a bad sector on your harddrive or
something like that.
But it's just a guess.
