What error messages have you got?
What ./configure options did you use?
What crashes - the client process running the command? or the whole
postgres server?
Do you have any core dumps? Or crash logs?
Does shp2pgsql give any messages? Have you looked in console.log?
Is the shp file known to import ok on other installations?
