  Log:
  PostgreSQL 8.3.1 has changed it's bytea encoding.
  
  * in PostgreSQL 8.3.1 Release note
  Make encode(bytea, 'escape') convert all high-bit-set byte values into \nnn 
octal escape sequences (Tom)
  
  This is necessary to avoid encoding problems when the database encoding is 
multi-byte. This change could pose compatibility issues for applications that 
are expecting specific results from encode.
  
  but pyPgSQL escape bytea encode as it's own implementments. PostgreSQL says 
that it may make failure(see PQescapeBytea documentation).
  
  in PQescapeBytea function documentation:
  "The only difference from PQescapeByteaConn is that PQescapeBytea does not 
take a PGconn parameter. Because of this, it cannot adjust its behavior 
depending on the connection properties (in particular, whether 
standard-conforming strings are enabled) and therefore it might give the wrong 
results. Also, it has no way to return an error message on failure."
  
  Patch is included upstream already
