seb=# select name, setting from pg_settings where name like 'lc_%' or name
like '%enco%';
name | setting

client_encoding | WIN1251
lc_collate | ru_RU.CP1251
lc_ctype | ru_RU.CP1251

in utf-8 server encoding it work correctly:
seb=> select xpath('/русский/text()', v::xml) from (select
xml('<русский>язык</русский>')) as x(v);
xpath
--------
{язык}
(1 запись)
seb=> select name, setting from pg_settings where name like 'lc_%' or name
like '%enco%';
name | setting
-----------------+-------------
client_encoding | UTF8
lc_collate | ru_RU.UTF-8
lc_ctype | ru_RU.UTF-8
lc_messages | ru_RU.UTF-8
lc_monetary | ru_RU.UTF-8
lc_numeric | ru_RU.UTF-8
lc_time | ru_RU.UTF-8
server_encoding | UTF8
(8 rows)
i am think something is wrong here, string parsed correctly by xml(text),
but it result can't pass to xpath function...
