^^^^^^^^^
I assume that you got some FATAL before vacuum.
We have problems with elog(FATAL): backend just exits (with normal code)
and postmaster doesn't re-initialize shmem etc though backend could
have some spinlocks and pinned buffers. This leaves system in unpredictable
state!
IMO, in elog(FATAL) backend should abort() (just like in ASSERT).
