Tom Lane f192e4a5d0 Cause pg_proc.probin to be declared as text, not bytea. Everything was 
already treating it as text anyway, to the point that I couldn't find anything
to change except the datatype markings in catalog/*.h.  The only effect that
the bytea declaration had was to cause byteaout() to be invoked when pg_dump
(or another client program) inspected the column value.  Since pg_dump wasn't
expecting that, but just treating what it got as text, the net result is that
dump and reload would mangle any backslashes or non-ASCII characters in the
filename string for a C-language function.  That is a very long-standing bug,
but given the lack of field complaints it doesn't seem worth trying to find
a back-patchable fix.  We'll just make this change to fix it going forward.

This change will also forestall problems after the planned change to let bytea
emit hex output instead of escaped characters.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================
  
This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

	http://www.postgresql.org/download

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Changes between all PostgreSQL releases are recorded in the
file HISTORY.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
http://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at http://www.postgresql.org/.
