No time to look at the moment, I'm afraid.

That sounds exactly right.

I'm afraid you have a really Deep Mystery, and these things often take
quite some time to diagnose. I checked the FAQ for mention of pgsql, and
found just this one item:

  Q0092:  The error message Program received signal SIGINT, Interrupt.
          occurs when I try to use Exim with PostgreSQL.


A0092: Check that you have not set

     log_statement=true


in the PostgreSQL configuration file. It seems that this causes
PostgreSQL to return logging information as the first row in a query
result, which totally confuses Exim.

Doesn't sound relevant, but perhaps worth checking.
