The following bug has been logged online:

Bug reference:      6155
Logged by:          listar
Email address:      lis...@mail.ru
PostgreSQL version: 8.4.5
Operating system:   Gentoo 4.4.4-r2 p1.3, pie-0.4.5 64-bit
Description:        literal definition of arrays with double qoutes leads to
error
Details: 

for example:
SELECT ('{string "with" double quotes}'::text[])[1] as value;
gives:

ERROR:  malformed array literal: "{string "with" double quotes}"
LINE 1: SELECT ('{string "with" double quotes}'::text[])[1] as value...
                ^
********** Error **********
ERROR: malformed array literal: "{string "with" double quotes}"
SQL state: 22P02
Character: 9

Expected result:
         value
---------------------------
string "with" double quotes 
(1 row)


I tried to escape input string in different ways, but it wasn't successful
=(

as I can understood the problem is in "switch" statement in method
"ArrayCount(...)" in file \src\backend\utils\adt\arrayfuncs.c
(that switch doesn't cover all possible cases)
