We really can't consider a patch like this, because not only does it
ignore the problem of multiple spellings of encoding names, but it
actually breaks existing functionality on platforms with a variant
spelling of the name.  I think a minimum requirement ought to be that
it work with any of the spellings recognized by initdb.
