I'm not sure, but try this:

First convert your XML to a Java String. Then create an insert statement und use the XMLPARSE method of PostgreSQL to convert your value to the xml type of PostgreSQL:

INSERT INTO xml_docs(id, gkuzu) VALUES (1, XMLPARSE('Hello'));

See: http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/XML_Support

UPDATE:

Java code example:

String sql = "INSERT INTO xml_docs(id, gkuzu) VALUES (?, XMLPARSE(?))";
[...]
stmt.setString(2, "Hello World!");

This should create this statement:

INSERT INTO xml_docs(id, gkuzu) VALUES (1, XMLPARSE('Hello World!'));
