We need to produce the log output in the server encoding, because that's how we need to send it to the client. If you have different databases with different server encodings, you will get inconsistently encoded output in the log file. Conceivably, we could create a configuration option that specifies the encoding for the log file, and strings a recoded from whatever gettext() produces to the specified encoding. initdb could initialize that option suitably, so in most cases users won't have to do anything. -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
