possible odbc driver bug with postgresql-7.4

[Caio Begotti <caio(at)ueberalles(dot)net>]

Hello list, I've contacted Peter Eisentraut (the current Debian  
maintainer of odbc-postgresql) and now I'm sending to you the same  
message I've sent to him. I hope you guys have any clue regarding  
this not-confirmed-bug...

I've tried to change my data field type from oid to lo but it didn't  
work.
I've tried using the ODBC connector with PGSQL-8.1 as well, and it  
didn't work.

Manually exporting the large object using lo_export works, so there's  
something recorded there.
Inserting in the database works as well, but getting the data back  
out does not.

Please let me know how I could make sure it's indeed a ODBC problem  
or SELECT/INSERT issue and how I could provide to you more useful  
information to track this problem and close it as soo as we can :-)

PS: the version of every package involved in this issue came from  
Debian Etch, which is now frozen for release

Cheers and thank you guys in advance!
