I think there is no problem with your compiler nor with the backend!
I have the same probs under Tcl/Tk. I even tried to do read and write
the file with the standard Tcl/Tk file i/o-ops setting translation to binary
and disabled EOF-char explicitly. But with almost no success. It ended
up in some Unicode-trouble I guess :-( This is definetly a windows problem
because you can do lo_import/lo_export directly on the unix machine
(using psql) and it there works fine.
So what I finally did was using the backend lo_import / lo_export via
SQL language on a specific directory which was made available to the
windows clients via Samba.
Hope this helps
