On the same local area network. Not on the computer running the script
(so direct COPY TO <file> is not an option).

OK I can do that. I thought I nailed it down to this line because it
started failing when this line was ~5th in the script, and it kept
failing on that very same line after I moved it at the very end of the
script (that's where it is now).

As a side note, COPY (...) TO STDOUT \g 'somefile' does not work in a
script file (i.e. it does not work if the command is passed in a file
via the -f argument).
The command runs fine, no error is raised either by the client or the
server, but no file is written.
