On most systems signal 11 is a segmentation fault; it generally
means that a program has attempted to use memory it's not allowed
to use.  That usually indicates a programming bug.

1.0.what?  What does "SELECT postgis_full_version()" show?  Recent
versions have fixed several crash-causing bugs, so if you're not
running the latest code (1.0.6 or 1.1.0) then try upgrading.  If
you still get crashes then please post a simple but complete test
case so others can try it.
