Something like that, or the LW 5.0 FFI string conversions, rather
meta-data, I think you are right. OTOH, I think they're are still
likely issues with postgres 8.x changes in metadata for which CLSQL
has still not been ported.

I don't have LW 5, but on quick test on the FFI would be to run UFFI's
test suite. It passes all tests on LW 4.4. If it does the same on LW
5, then yes, non-8 bit strings could well cause a problem.

UFFI and CLSQL have some very patchy support for non-ASCII
strings. But, there is no formal support for non-ASCII strings for
various wide to narrow and their inverse string conversions.
