Hello,

If I am connected to a database encoded in Latin-9 and I execute 
something like:

SET client_encoding='utf-8';
select * from bla

(where "bla" is obviously non existant)

I get the error nuber *and* the message, like:

FEHLER: Relation »bla« existiert nicht
SQL Status:42P01

If I am connected to a database encoded in UTF-8, I get only the error code:

select * from bla
             <--- empty line
FEHLER:
SQL Status:42P01

What is interesting: In the output/messages pane, the first line is 
empty/blank, instead of the error text (see above), if I execute again 
with an UTF-8 encoded database:

SET client_encoding='LATIN-9';
select * from bla

I do not get a message either, just the code, but the empty line 
*disappears*, the first line is "FEHLER:" (meaning Error)

I hope, my description is understandable...

Thanks a lot,
Albin
