        Attached are two patches:
        
        - installdoc.patch contains an additional paragraph on the win32 console
        codepage for the chapter "Installation on Windows"
        Due to a lack of SGML-tools, I have only edited the text and not tested
        the SGML code - please check it before merging into the CVS branch.
        
        - psqlcodepage.patch adds the warning about a problematic codepage to psql.
