   <function>pg_unescape_bytea</function> unescapes PostgreSQL bytea data
   values.  It returns the unescaped string, possibly containing binary data.
  </para>
  <note>
   <para>
    When you <literal>SELECT</literal> a bytea type, PostgreSQL returns octal byte values
    prefixed with '\' (e.g. \032). Users are supposed to convert back to
    binary format manually.
   </para>
   <para>
    This function requires PostgreSQL 7.2 or later. With PostgreSQL
    7.2.0 and 7.2.1, bytea values must be cast when you enable
    multi-byte support. i.e. <literal>INSERT INTO test_table (image)
    VALUES ('$image_escaped'::bytea);</literal> PostgreSQL 7.2.2 or
    later does not need a cast. The exception is when the client and backend
    character encoding does not match, and there may be multi-byte
    stream error. User must then cast to bytea to avoid this error.
