Re: Question about ALTER TABLE DROP CONSTRAINT on 9.1 -- psql crashes

We have a small database (few hundred megs of data, lass than half that in indexes) that suffers from index bloat. Currently we handle this with an hourly REINDEX command. This works but causes some small issues, so I have been expploring other methods.
When I try to to drop constraints (typically UNIQUE) I sometimes get a crash of the psql client at the ALTER TABLE X DROP CONSTRAINT, and sometimes after I recreate the constraint at a commit. Transcript below:
usher=# BEGIN;
BEGIN
gusher=# ALTER TABLE ourcodes DROP CONSTRAINT IF EXISTS ourcodes_pkey CASCADE;
ALTER TABLE
gusher=# ALTER TABLE ourcodes ADD CONSTRAINT ourcodes_pkey PRIMARY KEY (id);
NOTICE: ALTER TABLE / ADD PRIMARY KEY will create implicit index "ourcodes_pkey" for table "ourcodes"
ALTER TABLE
gusher=# COMMIT;
FATAL: terminating connection due to administrator command
server closed the connection unexpectedly
This probably means the server terminated abnormally
before or while processing the request.
The connection to the server was lost. Attempting reset: Succeeded.
gusher=# \d ourcodes
Unlogged table "public.ourcodes"

(1 row)
========
This table is only updated a few times a minute (mostly inserts and deletes, some updates), others get hit a lot more (many times a second). pgsql is the same version and I am on the same server.
Is this known / documented ? Any suggestions (other than not to do this ; -- )
Thanks,
Greg Williamson
