You've got to be kidding.  That will cause get_encoding_from_locale to
return some random bit of information (whatever is mapped to zero),
with who-knows-what result.

A configure-time probe seems unnecessary anyway, since we can just do
"#ifdef CODESET" in initdb.c.  The real question is what we should do
if it isn't defined.  We can certainly make get_encoding_from_locale
return NULL, but it looks like initdb will behave moderately
unpleasantly if we do that (ie, force you to specify -E in most cases).
Is there any reasonable fallback behavior?
