This isn't really a jdbc question and would probably better be addressed
to pgsql-general. The behavior you are now seeing is ANSI Standard
behavior. '= null' should always return false according to the
standard. In 7.2 this non-standard behavior was fixed. You will see
this behavior in all of the interfaces to postgres, not just jdbc.
There is a parameter in the postgresql.conf file that will revert back
to the old buggy behavior (transform_null_equals = true).
