CREATE DOMAIN idcode AS text

;

SELECT 'AAAAAéaaaaa'::idcode; // -> SQL Error: ERROR:  value for domain idcode violates check constraint "idcode_check" (note the accented “e” between all the “A”s)

This is running just fine against a 9.0 install on the same machine.  [\w] is Unicode aware and server encoding is set (and confirmed via SHOW) to be “UTF8”.
