I believe Tom Lane removed the double-backslash from the psql output by
modifying PQprint.
I recommend that is reversed, because psql escapes out the table column
delimiters with a single backslash, and now the format will be
ambigious.
rtest=> create table test(x text);
ERROR: test relation already exists
test=> create table test3(x text);
CREATE
test=> insert into test3 values ('\\x');
INSERT 322185 1
test=> select * from test3;
x
--
\x
(1 row)
This used to show as:
x
--
\\x
(1 row)
