Complex view abends backend (status 11)

I have several tables (tblClass, tblInst, etc.) and a complex view
vlkpClass that pulls together both tables, along with ~10 subselects
of information from other tables, some including aggregate function
information. The view compiles correctly, and has worked correctly,
but as it grew, it now gives this:

        This probably means the backend terminated abnormally
        before or while processing the request.

If I select certain fields from the view, it works fine, but if I select
many or select *, it crashes as above.

Any ideas? What can I do to provide more information?

Thanks!
