OK, I retested the whole stuff, here a quick summay:
1) Using "initdb -E LATIN1" when creating a database.
Works great, that was the trick: I can now use pg73b1jdbc2, pg73rc1jdbc2 or
pg73jdbc2.
2) Using "initdb" (leads to encoding "SQL_ASCII":
I can retrieve umlauts when I use use the pg73b1jdbc2 driver with the option
"charSet=ISO_8859_1" in the JDBC connection url. That is what we used till
now - I think we have to switch to LATIN1 enconding when we migrate to 7.3.1
(from 7.2).
I was using PostgreSQL 7.3.1, running on Linux with JDK 1.4.
