There seems to be a problem with ADOdb's escaping PostgreSQL literals
routine, because it's commented out and ADOdb is using its default
qstr() routine. (I should check it in an suitable time.) Therefore, I
advice you to use pg_escape_string().

Regards.

P.S. I've traced to qstr() code but couldn't find the
adodb_str_replace() function in ADOdb source code used by qstr().
Thus, I cannot give a correct answer about where qstr() dumps your
problem.
