Yes! That's it. Actually, the mapping is one of the points I don't see any
clearly after reading the protocol spec (and it looks like libpq doesn't
solve it either, leaving you just a bunch of bytes/text to interpret). Do
you have any ideas or any resources on how to approach the issue?

That's encouraging, thanks.
