 psql medikh
Welcome to the POSTGRESQL interactive sql monitor:
  Please read the file COPYRIGHT for copyright terms of POSTGRESQL

    type \? for help on slash commands
    type \q to quit
    type \g or terminate with semicolon to execute query
 You are currently connected to the database: medikh

medikh=> select oid from pg_class;
pqReadData() -- backend closed the channel unexpectedly.
              This probably means the backend terminated abnormally
              before or while processing the request.
We have lost the connection to the backend, so further processing is impossible.
 Terminating.

sorry, I don't. But this is shurely a 64-bit Alpha specific Problem,
the same Release works on Intel (clientside may still run on Alpha!).
