Hello,

Actually I have sort of two questions rolled into one: when creating
custom data types, there's the option to implement *_send() and *_recv()
functions in addition to *_in() and *_out(); does pg_dump use them for
binary dumps, and, if not, what uses them? Are they only an optional
optimization for storing binary data in the database?
