I finally found some time to debug this, and I think I found a better
patch than the one you proposed. Mine is still hackish and is still a
workaround around a proper quoting solution, but at least it repairs
the parsing without introducing the \' quoting again.
I consider this a band-aid patch to fix the recent security update.
PostgreSQL gurus, would you consider applying this until a better
solution is found for DBMirror.pl?

only remnant of this failed experiment is that the server will take
SET AUTOCOMMIT TO ON. Still TODO: provide some client-side autocommit
logic in libpq.
"SET search_path" commands were added to the beginning of the script.
The attatched patch should fix the problem. It probably should be
applied against the 7.3 and 7.4 branches.
