BUG #4678: codepage UTF8 crashes psql

I'm running postgres 9.1 and getting this same bug.

Am running the client in UTF-8 (chcp 65001), have set the environment
variable PGCLIENTENCODING to UTF8, set the terminal font to Lucida
psql returns "Out of memory error" for any simple query (e.g. SELECT
MAX(date) FROM mytable;), even on small tables.

Can you be more specific about your environment?

- Exact version of Windows including edition, service pack and 32/64 bit
info
- Exact version of PostgreSQL and where you downloaded it from
- Font - lucidia *what* ? "Lucidia Console" ?
- Does the issue happen with other unicode fonts or just this one?
- Are you using the regular cmd.exe console ?
