merlin,
Yes, you're correct, my phrasing was bad: all I meant was that it was a
conflict, not a bug in Postgres or hstore.
I personally don't know of any way around the conflict except changing
JDBC or hstore, and I don't think JDBC is gonna change.
Deciding not to accommodate JDBC on the Postgres side, though, is going
to prevent hstore from being used properly with Java or any JVM-based
language like JRuby.
Please let me know if my assumptions are wrong.
Best,
Seamus

As reported in BUG #7715 [1], hstore's use of ? as an operator conflicts
with JDBC's bind variables.
I think we could just alias ? to ~ and tell JDBC users to use that instead.
This is not a bug with postgres, but with java/JDBC. There are many
operators that use '?' besides hstore and JDBC should allow for
escaping out of its statement interpretation.
