Offhand I can't think of any section that addresses that topic
specifically, although there are passing mentions in the installation
docs and other places.  Want to write up a new section?

BTW, as of 7.3 both --enable-locale and --enable-multibyte are standard,
so at least the "did you build with the right options?" FAQ will go
away.  There'll still be "did you initdb with the right locale?" to
trap the unwary, though :-(
