set_client_encoding is broken - Mailing list pgsql-hackers

If you look on gothic_moth and comet_moth

http://www.pgbuildfarm.org/cgi-bin/show_log.pl?nm=gothic_moth&dt=2009-08-30%2020:06:00
http://www.pgbuildfarm.org/cgi-bin/show_log.pl?nm=comet_moth&dt=2009-08-29%2021:06:00

you can see following error:

is culprint.

It seems that backend does not have loaded pg_encoding yet when
SetClientEncoding is processed.
