Hey all,

Could you tell me please an objective reason why PQunescapeBytea()
returns unsigned char* rather than just char* ?
I am asking because a bit confused. How this intermixes with LO's API,
which based on signed chars (although as we all know large object -
is a just bytea splitted on chunks)?
And also PQgetvalue() returns char* rather than unsigned char*.

Thanks.
