No, the database encoding is UTF-8, the cluster was built with
ru_RU.UTF-8 locale, and I haven't modified any defaults.
It's on FreeBSD 6.1, and it's quite possible that it has something
wrong with utf-8 locale, I saw some complaints at least about
collation.
However, isspace doesn't seem like a culprit to me. Let's ensure that
I have done everything right to come to this conclusion. I have
applied the following patch to pl_funcs.c:
But, if I'm doing everything right, isspace seems not to be the
culprit to me. I have run the above query on the server with the
following applied patch (the server is 8.1.4, but I don't see any
changes to the plpgsql_convert_ident() in revs 1.46-1.54):

while (*s)
and got the following line in the logfile:
LOG: plpgsql_convert_ident: ident=х, isspace array=ff, isspace(0)=f
The symbol after "input=" is that 0x0445 (D1 85 in utf-8) letter which
I mentioned above. I also double-checked this: got a stack trace (by
inserting NULL-pointer assignment instead of reporting "expected dot
between identifiers") and saw that the value passed to the
plpgsql_convert_ident points to the following bytes: D1 85 00.
So, isspace returns false on all three of them.
I have also run the same query on another cluster (and the same
binaries), initialized with a single-byte encoding: ru_RU.KOI8-R,
where everything works. isspace returns the same results:
LOG: plpgsql_convert_ident: ident=х, isspace array=f, isspace(0)=f
LOG: plpgsql_convert_ident: ident=test_table, isspace array=ffffffffff,
isspace(0)=f
Strange...
