What is the equivalent of Oracle's RAW in pg?

Hi,

I compiled and installed the latest version of the pg sources from CVS.
I'm trying to do the equivalent of the RAW type from oracle. I thought
varbit(n) was the way to go but when I try to use it, I get an error.
Varbit alone works, though. Is this a case of me not knowing how to use
it properly or are the docs wrong?

Thanks,

L
