Hi Mark,

Thank you for your quick reply and thank you for the tip. I performed  
the query in pgAdmin and did not get any message. After retrying it  
from the terminal I got did get reply from the server:

AddToPROJ4SRSCache: couldn't parse proj4 string: '+proj=sterea  
+lat_0=52.15616055555555 +lon_0=5.38763888888889 +k=0.999908  
+x_0=155000 +y_0=463000 +ellps=bessel  
+towgs84=565.237,50.0087,465.658,-0.406857,0.350733,-1.87035,4.0812  
+units=m +no_defs ': unknown projection id
server closed the connection unexpectedly
         This probably means the server terminated abnormally
         before or while processing the request.
The connection to the server was lost. Attempting reset: Failed.

It is different from your message, but I will follow your advice and  
try some other SRID's.

Regards, Peter
