Query returns different result sets on different Postgres versions

[eaigner]

Put the following Gist in a main.go and run it (with the correct credentials set) against

1. A local install of Postgres 9.2.2 using the Postgres.app with ssmode=disable
2. A free heroku Postgres 9.1.6 Dev instance with ssmode=require

version 1 will return rows in both cases, version 2 only for the table without the bytea field.

Yes, pq needs to learn how to read ParamaterStatus messages in general, such as this one. Also, DateStyle, and probably others.

Looks like this is a duplicate of #76. The problem isn't so much that it doesn't return rows; rows.Next() returns false also if an error occurred while trying to fetch/process the next row. In this case, an error happened trying to parse the "escape" format bytea value from the database, which was fixed by #195.

As for how to better handle DateStyle and similar settings, that deserves its own discussion. I'm closing this one.
