Description:
------------
In ext/pdo_pgsql/pgsql_driver.c the methods pgsqlCopyToArray, pgsqlCopyFromArray etc. all use the following syntax:

  COPY %s FROM STDIN DELIMITERS E'%c' WITH NULL AS E'%s'

In at least PostgreSQL 9.2 this is a syntax error though. The correct syntax is:

  COPY %s FROM STDIN WITH DELIMITER E'%c', NULL AS E'%s'

a) the "WITH" is optional but must come immediately after the STDIN if given
b) it's a singular "DELIMITER", not plural


(btw, these method are undocumented anyway, see my other bug report about that)

That's simply not true. If you were receiving an error, it must have been something else. See:

http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.2/static/sql-copy.html#AEN66829

At some point compatibility with <7.3 syntax might be dropped though, so I'm going to follow the suggestion anyway (using pre-9.0 syntax).
