Works for me. I also just messed with that part in the devel sources the
other day and I don't see a reason why it wouldn't. Perhaps you could run
the COPY command instead (and make sure the file is accessible to the
server process) or simply run a COPY FROM STDIN; and enter a few things by
hand and see what you get.

When the backend sends garbage it cannot possibly send the error
message. The error was that the read from the connection failed. Of course
one could argue why that is ... Hmm.
