Check the information the pg_*_mblen use / how the relevant encodings
work. Will be something like
int
pg_utf_mblen(const unsigned char *s)
{int len;
if ((*s & 0x80) == 0) len = 1;else if ((*s & 0xe0) == 0xc0) len = 2;else if ((*s & 0xf0) == 0xe0) len = 3;else
if((*s & 0xf8) == 0xf0) len = 4;
#ifdef NOT_USEDelse if ((*s & 0xfc) == 0xf8) len = 5;else if ((*s & 0xfe) == 0xfc) len = 6;
#endifelse len = 1;return len;
}
As you can see, only the first character (*s) is accessed to determine
the length/width of the multibyte-character. That's afaict the case for
all server-side encodings.
