Hello, 

Looks like we have more serious problem with multibyte identifiers.
When I run the following sequence of queries:

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION CreateOrAlterTable()
RETURNS int
AS $$
BEGIN
  if not EXISTS(SELECT relname FROM pg_class WHERE relname ILIKE 'т1' AND 
relkind = 'r') then
    CREATE TABLE т1 (
           к1 int NOT NULL,
           PRIMARY KEY (к1)
    );
  end if;
  return 0;
END;
$$ LANGUAGE plpgsql;

SELECT CreateOrAlterTable();

CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION CreateOrAlterTable()
RETURNS int
AS $$
BEGIN
  if not EXISTS(SELECT relname FROM pg_class WHERE relname ILIKE 'т2' AND 
relkind = 'r') then
    CREATE TABLE т2 (
           к2 int NOT NULL,
           PRIMARY KEY (к2)
    );
  end if;
  return 0;
END;
$$ LANGUAGE plpgsql;

and then try to create the second table:

  SELECT CreateOrAlterTable();

, this gives me the following error (on HEAD as well as patched 8.1.4):

ERROR:  invalid byte sequence for encoding "UTF8": 0xf18231
HINT:  This error can also happen if the byte sequence does not match the 
encoding expected by the server, which is controlled by "client_encoding".
CONTEXT:  SQL statement "SELECT not EXISTS(SELECT relname FROM pg_class WHERE 
relname ILIKE '?1' AND relkind = 'r')"
PL/pgSQL function "createoraltertable" line 2 at if

correct utf-8 byte sequence is 0xd18231, so it looks like we call
tolower() somewhere on parts of multibyte characters, and it does the
same as isspace() - it interprets it's argument as wide character, and
converts it.

simple create tables work, as well as create tables which are called
inside a procedure without "IF EXISTS" check.

So, we either don't support utf-8 on BSDs (BTW, this needs to be
checked on less popular BSD flavors) for now, or we need to fix this
somehow. E.g., by calling only wide-character checks, which will
complicate things...
