I found this behaviour which I think must count as a bug.
\gset doesn't allow more \\-separated lines behind it:
Only the last of these commands is problematic, and giving the syntax error
$ psql
psql (9.3devel-psql_var-20121012_2345-8b728e5c6e0ce6b6d6f54b92b390f14aa1aca6db)
Type "help" for help.
testdb=# select 1,2 \gset x,y
testdb=# \echo :x
1
testdb=# \echo :y
2
testdb=# \echo :x \\ \echo :y
1
2
testdb=# select 1,2 \gset x,y \\ \echo :x
\gset: syntax error
testdb=#
It'd be nice if it could be made to work
