I have had a request to add multi-byte support to the Debian binary
packages of PostgreSQL.
Since I live in England, I have personally no need of this and therefore
have little understanding of the implications.
If I change the packages to use multi-byte support, (UNICODE (UTF-8) is
suggested as the default), will there be any detrimental effects on the
fairly large parts of the world that don't need it? Should I try to
provide two different packages, one with and one without MB support?
