Have you tried the rpms? I haven't tried compiling since the excellent
people on this list who make rpms included java and multibyte.

So I just rpm -Uvh postgresql*

And it works. I am having problems with ' in queries wich look for
"l'art" etc. But accents work just fine in java, psql, perl you name it
they work!
