Correct. If you are new to PostgreSQL, why not simply use PostgreSQL RPMs
which should be compiled by default with the --enable-multibyte feature
(Mandrake RPMs are).
2) PHP multi-byte compatibility

PHP needs to be compiled with multi-byte options as explained in
http://www.php.net/manual/en/install.configure.php
Please note you can overload PHP string functions with their multi-byte safe
equivalent using "mbstring.func_overload = positive value" in php.ini.
A more detailed information can be found at
http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.mbstring.php.
