Hello!

Still having troubles with client_encoding
I have database in KOI8-R encoding. When I try to SET NAMES 'WIN' and
do a select, I have such error:

ERROR:  character 0x8b9a of encoding "MULE_INTERNAL" has no equivalent
in "WIN1251"

The database is about 3Gb size and needs to be in koi8, but client
encoding needs to be windows-1251

What should I do? Searching mailing list gives patches to
cyrillic_and_mic.c for such kind of problems, but in PostgreSQL v8.3.5
 they're alredy in (out of the box).

Please help...
