I get a very similar error with both 64 bit and 32 bit postgres installations. I
have a table in LATIN1, but whenever I try to connect using psql, I get error
message:
postgres=# \c mydb
FATAL:  conversion between WIN1252 and LATIN1 is not supported
Previous connection kept

I can connect through pgAdmin and create tables etc, just not with psql.
