It doesn't matter. I have tried it with SQL_ASCII, ISO-8859-1, and with an
installation on Solaris which doesn't have encodings ("psql -l" doesnt list
the Encoding field).
Strange thing is, if I use the jdbc7.0-1.2.jar from
http://jdbc.postgresql.org, the special characters work ok. But then I have
the 8k statement limitation problem.

They're converted when I insert. I can insert the same characters directly
into psql (into the same table) and it works ok (I can retrieve them without
problems). I can use LIBPQ apps (PHP, PGACCESS etc) and it works ok with all
backends (running with encodings SQL_ASCII, ISO, etc)...
