The problem with crashme is that it tells you nothing of practical value.
It doesn't tell you whether PostgreSQL works right.  It doesn't tell you
whether PostgreSQL works well.  It doesn't tell you whether PostgreSQL
conforms to some standard.  It doesn't even tell whether PostgreSQL is
compatible to some other product.  The only thing that you could possibly
get out of fixing crashme is to look better in crashme.  And for the above
reasons, there is little interest in working on that.
