I just realized that your log is showing "STATEMENT: [...]" which I think
means that's using libpq PQexec (simple query protocol), which means it doesn't
use or support bind parameters at all. If it were using PQexecParams (protocol
2.0 "extended" query), it would show "execute <unnamed>: [...]", with any bind
params in DETAIL. And if you were using PQexecPrepared, it'd show "execute
FOO: [...]" where FOO is the name of the statement "prepared" by PQprepare
(plus bind params).

What client application is this ? It looks like it's going to set
deletion_date to the literal string "$1" .. except that it's not quoted, so the
statement will just cause an error. Am I wrong ?

Could you grep the entire logfile for pid 24803 and post the output on dropbox
or pastebin or show 10 lines of context by email ?

I've just used my messages and test cases on this patch as a reference to check
what I wrote above is accurate.

As I mentioned, you can set log_destination=csvlog,stderr and import them with
COPY (and add indices and analysis and monitoring..). It look like DETAILs are
being logged, so that's not the issue, but CSV also has the nice benefit of
being easily imported to SQL where escaping and linebreaks and similar are not
confusing the issue, which I think can be the case for text logs.
