convert this string without any kind of error.
On 8.4:

i receive these messages:
WARNING: nonstandard use of escape in a string literal
RIGA 1: select convert('Vall\xe9e','LATIN1','UTF8');
^
HINT: Use the escape string syntax for escapes, e.g., E'\r\n'.
ERROR: invalid byte sequence for encoding "UTF8": 0xe965
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".
