I was able to reproduce this with your instructions. Thank you!

The bug was indeed introduced by commit f82de5c46b, in v14. Attached
patch fixes it. Barring any objections, I'll commit and backpatch this.

I also noticed that there are some outdated comments in copyfromparse.c
that still talk about the old protocol version 2 and COPY_OLD_FE. I'll
clean that up as a separate commit.
