Im interested in fixing "Allow binary data transfers for all datatypes not just bytea".
where is the affected serverside code ?.


The server is already prepared to accept binary data, the change just needs to be made in the driver. The place to start is definitely with Mikko Tiihonen's patches to do this already[1] and assorted mailing list discussion. His patches already do ninety something percent of what we need. I unfortunately don't recall the exact state of the patches and what the open issues are, so the first place to start is the archives.
