It is expected that the driver will return a PGobject if there underlying
column data is of a type not directly mappable to a Java type, and if
there is a pg specific java type configured in the driver. Traditionally
we've had additional support for some of the geometric types, but if this
is something new I would guess it would be the added support in 8.1 for
the interval datatype.
