RStudio Crash When dbGetQuery Returns Error

I updated R, Rstudio and many packages a couple weeks ago and am now running into a weird scenario I can't figure out.

When I run a query on a Redshift cluster via dbGetQuery, as long as it's a valid query with no errors, things work fine and as expected. If the query returns an error (like missing a group by or typo), rather than returning the error, RStudio throws the “R session aborted” screen with the bomb.

I ran the query in an R console and received the following:

 *** caught segfault ***
address 0xa8d60, cause 'memory not mapped'

Traceback:
 1: postgresqlExecStatement(conn, statement, ...)
 2: dbSendQuery(con, statement, ...)
 3: dbSendQuery(con, statement, ...)
 4: doTryCatch(return(expr), name, parentenv, handler)
 5: tryCatchOne(expr, names, parentenv, handlers[[1L]])
 6: tryCatchList(expr, classes, parentenv, handlers)
 7: tryCatch(expr, error = function(e) {    call <- conditionCall(e)    if (!is.null(call)) {        if (identical(call[[1L]], quote(doTryCatch)))             call <- sys.call(-4L)        dcall <- deparse(call, nlines = 1L)        prefix <- paste("Error in", dcall, ": ")        LONG <- 75L        sm <- strsplit(conditionMessage(e), "\n")[[1L]]        w <- 14L + nchar(dcall, type = "w") + nchar(sm[1L], type = "w")        if (is.na(w))             w <- 14L + nchar(dcall, type = "b") + nchar(sm[1L],                 type = "b")        if (w > LONG)             prefix <- paste0(prefix, "\n  ")    }    else prefix <- "Error : "    msg <- paste0(prefix, conditionMessage(e), "\n")    .Internal(seterrmessage(msg[1L]))    if (!silent && isTRUE(getOption("show.error.messages"))) {        cat(msg, file = outFile)        .Internal(printDeferredWarnings())    }    invisible(structure(msg, class = "try-error", condition = e))})
 8: try(dbSendQuery(con, statement, ...))
 9: postgresqlQuickSQL(conn, statement, ...)

..... (removed the query)

Possible actions:
1: abort (with core dump, if enabled)
2: normal R exit
3: exit R without saving workspace
4: exit R saving workspace

Any idea what might be going on?

Thanks!
