 How you make initdb? With `-E` option?

 If you use `-E` - don't use this option. If need encoding - read
doc/README.mb.

I'm use next shell script for configure:
=== postgres_conf.sh ===
#!/bin/sh

./configure --with-perl --with-odbc \
        --with-tcl --with-tclconfig=/usr/local/lib/tcl8.3 \
        --with-tkconfig=/usr/local/lib/tk8.3 \
        --with-includes=/usr/local/include/tk8.3 \
!!!>>>        --enable-locale --enable-multibyte=KOI8 \
        --with-CC=gcc --with-CXX=gcc
=== postgres_conf.sh ===
(need remove symbols "!!!>>>" !)

 Rebuild and reinstall PostgreSQL.


Good luck,
    Michael
