Doesn't sound like to major of a problem.  I have  similar setup though
snort does not hang when I restart postgresql.  One suggestion, use a
monitoring package (I use Nagios) to keep track of your snort processes.
Then, write a simple shell script to restart snort if it dies.  Or, you
could try adding a line like this:

service snortd restart (or equivalent for your OS)

To your postgresql init script.

Hope that helps.
