In my mind, the unknownin/out business was waiting on commentary from
Tatsuo or Hiroshi on whether it was a bug for the TEXT code to be
rejecting byte sequences that had got by the initial pq_getstr
conversion. If it is, then we should be fixing TEXT not adding new code
for UNKNOWN. But if TEXT's behavior is considered desirable then we'll
need to change UNKNOWN.
Is the mb patch the one that fixes John Gray's oversight in substring?
If so, I thought that was due to be applied. Bruce, were you going to
do that?
