This is odd and disturbing. 7.2 and later servers should never generate
an unescaped \r in COPY output, so the first error shouldn't appear;
and even if it did, the new FE/BE protocol is supposed to prevent loss
of message-boundary sync, which the second error suggests is happening
anyway. It's really not clear what's being sent or who's at fault.
Unfortunately, I can't think of any painless method of tracing down an
error that is happening 146178 lines into a bulk COPY :-(. If you are
running this across a TCP socket, maybe you could capture the traffic
with tcpdump --- if so, looking at the last few dozen packets in each
direction would be mighty useful ...
