/* Set up parameter arrays for PQexecParams */
    paramValues[0] = (char *) &binaryIntVal;
    paramLengths[0] = sizeof(binaryIntVal);
    paramFormats[0] = 1;        /* binary */
...
seems a bit convoluted.

In particular I was looking for an example of setting up a string
parameter for PQexecParams, assuming that is possible.

strings don't need to be passed in binary, so its a lot simpler.

see example 30-3 on http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/libpq-example.html

   const char *paramValues[1];

  /* Here is our out-of-line parameter value */
   paramValues[0] = "joe's place";

   res = PQexecParams(conn,
                      "SELECT * FROM test1 WHERE t = $1",
                      1,       /* one param */
                      NULL,    /* let the backend deduce param type */
                      paramValues,
                      NULL,    /* don't need param lengths since text */
                      NULL,    /* default to all text params */
                      0);      /* ask for text results */
