This is due to the way Postgresql is handling strings in later versions.
You can see some of the discussion in this bug:
http://issues.apache.org/SpamAssassin/show_bug.cgi?id=5299
I would welcome patches from anyone who would like to provide a fix for
this. Our Postgresql support is geared towards 7.X and some of the
advances in 8.X causes issues with a couple of things. Sadly I don't
have enough time to maintain the support at the moment.
