UPDATE:  Turns out the garbage characters were actually in the field names
themselves.   Somehow a previous bad connection caused line breaks to get
replaced with unicode garbage when I created the table.   It seems like, in
PSQL, the use of non-ASCII characters should require quoted identifiers, but
apparently not?
