The old code doesn't make sense. The literallen is the length of the
data in literalbuf, which clearly doesn't include the "U&" as the
comment suggests.
A test case is to preprocess a file like this (ecpg test.pgc):
exec sql select u&"
which currently does *not* give the above error, but it should.
Committed.
For the record, the correct test case was actually
exec sql select u&"";
