Regarding mysqldump, it handles binary data through escaping the required characters. pg_dump is similar if memory serves me correctly.
Thanks Chris.
So dumping binary data / large objects using myslqdump is fine. I looked up if this is ok with pg_dump as well and it is but you must use a non-text output option Eg. a tar file.
