I tried using the quote method like so:
$data = $dbh->quote($buffer, DBD::Pg::PG_BYTEA):
and that went into a seemingly-infinite (or at least very long) loop, and
dunking warnings about invalid characters into my webserver logs.
D'oh.
Looks like I'm going back to using the BLOBs method, which worked fine!

Why? Rows in Pg are unlimited length, and BLOBs are supported only to
be "oracle-like". It's preferred that you simply store the data in
the row.
