Before I forget, did you verify that:
- The 'old' code reproduces the problem (postmap -q fails to look
up a database key that contains UTF8) and the 'new' code fixes it.
- The client will read settings in the [client] group even if
options_group specifies a different name.
Otherwise I'll have to set up a mysql database to verify that myself.
