PostgreSQL version: 8.2.0 win32

Description:        when backup UTF-8 database,pgdump add comments not
encoded in UTF-8
Details:

When I make a backup of a UTF8 database then pg_dump add some comment to
backup file:

-- Started on 2006-12-23 11:04:38 中国标准时间
...
...
-- Completed on 2006-12-23 11:04:40 中国标准时间

'中国标准时间' means in English 'China standard
time'. Unfortunately it is encoded incorretly in GBK, not in UTF-8. It makes
following error during restore:

pg_restore: connecting to database for restore

pg_restore: [archiver (db)] Error while INITIALIZING:

pg_restore: [archiver (db)] could not execute query: ERROR:  invalid byte
sequence for encoding "UTF8": 0xd6d0
