Examining why psql won't do sensible stuff with COPY BINARY, I realized
that psql still uses PQgetline, which is marked obsolete since 7.4.
Is this intentional or just a "never reviewed because it works"?
Unfortunately, psql/copy.c also states "if you want to use copy in your
app, this is the code to steal". Seems not a good template code any more.

Regards,
Andreas
