It's complaining about a buffer reference count leakage --- most likely
due to the bug in 7.0.* whereby a backend may fail to run transaction-
abort code before shutting down, if the client disconnects in the middle
of a transaction block.
You could get rid of the immediate problem by restarting the postmaster,
but I recommend updating to 7.0.3 to fix the real bug.
