[gdal-dev] problem with importing gml file to PostGIS with ogr2ogr

Thanks for your explanations but I still can't import polygons which 
contains many vertices.
I do some test with polygons which contains different quantities of 
vertices and
on my computer and configuration I can import polygon which has 2046 
pairs (x,y) of coordinates
but I can't import when it has 2047 pairs and more.
The length of hex string which is created in attribute 
geometry(Geometry,2180)
can't be longer than 65534 chars.
Where eventually to change  some configurations variables of PostGIS or 
Postgres or ogr2ogr ?
Do you have any other suggestion ?

Piotr
