Just trying precompiling this statement gives:
t.pgc:1: ERROR: syntax error at or near "VARRAW"
And this is the expected result as ECPG does not know the VARRAW
datatype. I would be interested to implement this however if I find the
time.

Could you send me a file where ecpg does not accept the TYPE command? It
should be available as long as you use variable types ecpg recognizes.
