Re: Shouldn't default multibyte encoding come from template database?

How so?
               | CREATE DATABASE database_name                               {
CreatedbStmt*n = makeNode(CreatedbStmt);                                       n->dbname = $3;
            n->dbpath = NULL;                                       n->encoding = GetTemplateEncoding();
                      $$ = (Node *)n;                                }
 

Or does GetTemplateEncoding() not get the template encoding?

In any case, it should, because that's how it used to work and how it's
documented.
