This is the same crash location as in bug 1039605, and as there, a PANIC is expected if the pg_control file disappeared. The question is what did that ...
Well I send SIGTERM to the postmaster and shortly after removed the database directory. This might explain why a file might be gone (: I guess it's possibly a user error but the reporting tool was eager to report it, so I went ahead.

I'm closing as duplicate then, but thanks for the bug-report, Jonas. And thanks Tom for looking at this. Pavel *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 1039605 ***
