Your patch has been added to the PostgreSQL unapplied patches list at:
http://candle.pha.pa.us/cgi-bin/pgpatches
I will try to apply it within the next 48 hours.
> Attached is a patch which deals with
>
> select 'id' as xxx from table
>
> The issue is:
>
> When the driver gets a data type which does not map into the SQL.Types
> it attempts to load the object into a java object. Eventually throwing
> an exception indicating that the type "unknown" was not found.
>
> Since the backend defaults "unknown" types to text it was suggested that
> the jdbc driver do the same.
>
> This patch does just that.
>
> I have tested it on the above select statement as well as a small
> program that serializes, and deserializes a class
>
