Seems like a client-side quoting bug to me. Backslashes have to be
doubled at the sending end, because COPY itself will do one level of
backslash processing.
If the client-side code is ours, then it's our problem, but you did not
say what you are using...

Sounds like you didn't re-run configure after updating. I doubt that
affects the COPY issue above, but it surely might cause some other
problems. My invariable procedure for updating from CVS is a complete
rebuild:
make distclean
cvs update
configure
make
This costs a few machine cycles but I figure that's cheap compared to my
time puzzling out meaningless failures.
