make installcheck currently fails against a server running with bytea_output = escape.
Making it succeed is fairly easy, and I think it is worth doing.
Attached are two options for doing that. One overrides bytea_output locally where-ever needed, and the other overrides it for the entire 'regression' database.
The solution that overrides bytea_output locally looks appropriate. It may not be required to change the format for entire database.
Had there been a way to convert bytea_output from 'hex' to 'escape' internally, that could have simplified this customisation even more.
