7.0.2 does not support "1+GBs" per column.  You need to update to 7.1.*
to have wide columns.

The error message "query string too long" is also suspicious, since that
string appears nowhere in either current or 7.0 sources.  I suspect you
are using obsolete client-side software (left over from 6.5 or before)
that still thinks Postgres has a query length limit.
