Bug reference:      2692
Logged by:          Sergiy Vyshnevetskiy
Email address:      serg@vostok.net
PostgreSQL version: 8.1.4
Operating system:   FreeBSD-6 stable
Description:        psql sends natively-localized strings to database
without setting client_encoding first
Details:

psql mixes natively-localized string in SQL commands without setting
client_encoding first. Looks like we _really_ need some code in configure
script to find acceptable native names for our database charsets.

%zsh 1 11:27 serg@serg p0 /home/serg
set | egrep -a '^LANG|^LC_|^MM_CHAR'
LANG=ru_RU.KOI8-R
MM_CHARSET=KOI8-R
%zsh 0 11:27 serg@serg p0 /home/serg
psql -l
ERROR:  invalid byte sequence for encoding "UTF8": 0xe9cdd1
