I'm far from an expert on this, but the gettext documentation indicates
that it tries to translate the .po file contents into whatever encoding
is implied by LC_CTYPE.  The fact that the string passed to
utf8_to_iso8859_1 is not identical to the .po file contents indicates
that gettext is doing *something*.  I'm a bit worried that this
translation could be out of step with what we will expect the
server_encoding to be --- but there's not any immediate evidence of
that.

Anyway, the real problem seems to be what to do if translation of an
error message to the client_encoding fails.  That's clearly a risk even
if gettext has behaved perfectly.
