Short Description
Bug when inserting in "bytea" column type

Long Description
PosgreSQL version 7.2.2
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/pgsql --enable-multibyte=WIN --cache-file=/dev/null

In "psql" command line tool:
CREATE TABLE IMAGES (ID SERIAL,NAME VARCHAR(32), DATA BYTEA);
and then i type.

INSERT INTO IMAGES (NAME,DATA) VALUES ('image1','\377\000\556\211\000');

after this i do next:
SELECT * FROM IMAGES;
and result of this query was:
ID     |   NAME     |   DATA
1          image1       \377

all data after '\000' have been missed. Is this a bug?
From PHP 4.0.6-client this work the same.

You need to double all those backslashes.
