Below are two queries that should be pretty much the same but with the
first one, I'm trying to boil it down to a minimal test-case so I
don't have to export the table definition of dcm.providers. The first
one returns nothing but at least executes the query.
=> create table foo ( foo text );
=> select * from foo where foo like 'FOO%\'
The second one fails to execute the query...
=> select * from dcm.providers where lname like 'FOO%\'
ERROR: LIKE pattern must not end with escape character
Our server is 9.1.4 and can reproduce this behaviour with either 8.4
or 9.1 clients.
