Wanting to share the novice discovery of things that is well
known to you buffs I now can say that my problems are very neatly
solved by using the pgsql module in php (type lo_import() access).

Anybody out there have a similar problem the postgres JDBC doc
may help if you are going in that direction. If php and "native"
postgress access is wanted, see (e.g.)

 http://se.php.net/manual/en/function.pg-lo-create.php

All in a box, as it were .....
