The JDBC driver does not connect successfully to a CVS HEAD server

enabling the debug messages in the driver shows that it is sending
client_encoding=UNICODE in the startup packet, but the server is
reporting client_encoding=UTF8 back to the driver, causing the driver
to complain:

Indeed, referring to -hackers as this is a recent backend change. The backend is reporting the database encoding as the client encoding. When a connection is created with a startup packet sending client_encoding = UNICODE the server responds with a ParameterStatus message of client_encoding = server encoding. So something has gone wrong here. It's not just a UNICODE/UTF-8 problem as I see the server responding with LATIN1 with a LATIN1 database.
