The 8.5/9.0 release has changed the default bytea output format and the
8.4 JDBC driver does not support it. You've got a couple of options:
1) Change the bytea format back to the 8.4 supported format. Set
bytea_output = escape in your postgresql.conf.
2) Build the JDBC driver from CVS which does support the new format.
3) Use an 8.4 server.
