Sorry, I have no idea what's wrong :(

Is the simple LOAD command successful on your AIX?

Thanks. Yes, the LOAD command does work, on another database cluster on the same AIX machine.

So, loading libpqwalreceiver library crashes. It looks like it might be
pthread-related. Perhaps something wrong with our makefiles, causing
libpqwalreceiver to be built with wrong flags? Does contrib/dblink work?
If you look at the build log, what is the command line used to compile
libpqwalreceiver, and what is the command line used to build other
libraries, like contrib/dblink?

I haven't seen any response to this from the OP, but it seems
worrisome.  Has anyone else tested a Hot Standby configuraration -
successfully or otherwise - on AIX?

Unfortunately that only shows the install, not the link - it must have
been built earlier.  Can you do "make clean" in that just that one
directory, and then "make install" again?

It'd be nice to see the whole build log, if it's not too much trouble
to regenerate it.

1. Yes, "contrib/dblink" does work. Here's the output from the command used to "make" dblink:

Per off-list discussion with Alanoly, we've determined the following:

dblink was compiled with the same flags as libpqwalreciever
dblink works
libpqwalreceiver crashes

I wonder if the problem is not so much libpqwalreceiver as the
walreceiver process.  Maybe an ordinary backend process does some
prerequisite initialization that walreceiver is missing.  Hard to
guess what, though ... I can't think of anything dlopen() depends on
that should be under our control.

Actually, that idea is easily tested: try doing
    LOAD 'libpqwalreceiver';
in a regular backend process.

If that still crashes, it might be useful to truss or strace the backend
while it runs the command, and compare that to the trace of
    LOAD 'dblink';

Alanoly, is this something you can try?

And if necessary, this too?

Thanks for your help debugging this....
