Well the bacula database is set up for UTF8 instead of SQL_ASCII.  
Poking around the postgres log I see at the time when a job started:

2008-09-09 09:52:58 EDT ERROR:  invalid byte sequence for encoding 
"UTF8": 0x82
2008-09-09 09:52:58 EDT HINT:  This error can also happen if the byte 
sequence does not match the encoding expected by the server, which is 
controlled by "client_encoding".
2008-09-09 09:52:58 EDT CONTEXT:  COPY batch, line 2213
2008-09-09 09:52:58 EDT STATEMENT:  COPY batch FROM STDIN

I'm guessing something isn't getting properly inserted, though I'm not 
sure what.  That's the only character sequence I see for a large job.

And that results in a fail of the whole batch insert and therefor all
information of the job is silently lost. It's more or less a known
problem.

But there was no response to this post on the -devel list...

Ther is also an old bug report:

Ah, ok, I'll try PostgreSQL with SQL_ASCII, and if that doesn't work I'll give MySQL a shot. Thanks.
