Blob's that worked in 7.1 fail in 7.2.1

I have just upgrading my database to 7.2.1 (I was on 7.1.3)

There are some little funnies between the two versions, mostly things
that have been tightened up in 7.2.1.

However, I have found the this code that used to work now fails. It is
code for writting a blob (image) back into the database.

                    File file = new File(imageFileName);
                    FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(file);
                    int length = (int)file.length();
                    pStmt.setBinaryStream(1, fis, length);
                    pStmt.setInt(2, currentEmployee);
                    int upd = pStmt.executeUpdate();

It now fails with this....

java.sql.SQLException: ERROR:  oidin: error in "~DGR:LOGO,09180,054,000000000000000.........

can't parse "~DGR:LOGO,09180,054,000000000000000........ etc, etc ....
