It's probably fine if you can control both ends. But there is no
guarantee of portability, nor does it seem likely to me there ever will
be, so I don't find your assertion terribly useful. The fact that it
hasn't broken for you doesn't mean it can't or won't be.
All true. If you change the

Binary mode had serious limitations, such as portability.

As far as portability is concerned, we are using it on many different
operating systems and architectures without issue. Even our most recent

I'm investigating the possibility of developing a utility function for
our C++ client library, libpqxx, that produces array literals that can
be used in prepared statements. This problem appears to be a bit of a
tar pit, so I'm hoping that someone can help me out. My goal is to
