My guess this:
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.1/interactive/release-9-1.html
"E.4.3.10.1. libpq
Add a libpq connection option client_encoding which behaves like
he PGCLIENTENCODING environment variable (Heikki Linnakangas)
The value auto sets the client encoding based on the operating
system locale.
"
Which leads to this:
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.1/interactive/libpq-connect.html#LIBPQ-CONNECT-CLIENT-ENCODING
