BLCKSZ was 16384 too. Actually, it ran with no problem on PG 8.2.6 with the
very same Linux distro (openSuSE 10.3) on the very same machine. So, it
does not seem the system settings are faulty (permission, user quotas, etc.
etc.).
Last week, I was running POG 8.2.6 on it. When 8.3.1 went out, I decided to
give it a try. I did pg_dumpall, recompiled PG 8.1.3 with the options that
were given by pg_config --configure and restored the dumpall file.
Needless to say, all regression tests were OK and I also checked the
libpq.so symbolic links tree in /usr/lib
