What kind of error message does "createdb -E LATIN1" give on a non MULTIBYTE backend? Maybe there needs to be a note somewhere informing people from Europe that they too need MULTIBYTE as an option at compile time. i.e. In a bright yellow box in the HTML docs... And in the Reference manual and man pages the -E option for createdb needs a note to specify that it applies to MULTIBYTE backends only.
