The error handling in quote_literal() doesn't look right to me. The
documentation for PQescapeStringConn says that it stores an error
message in the conn object, but your code ignores that and prints out
a generic message instead. That doesn't seem right: but then it
further goes on to call exit(1), which seems like a considerable
overreaction to an encoding violation, which is apparently the only
class of error PQescapeStringConn() is documented to throw.
