There are no code pages in Ubuntu. The nearest what you can get seems to
be encoding LATIN2 ( and a compatible locale ). These charsets are NOT
identical though.

Not really - LC_COLLATE and LC_CTYPE are set during initialization of
the cluster by initdb. You can verify the settings with pg_controldata:
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/8.2/interactive/app-pgcontroldata.html
As of PostgreSQL v8.4 you can specify these two locale settings
different from the server's settings (for each database).
If you plan to upgrade your PostgreSQL major server version beware of
the removal of some implicit data type casts among other changes as of 8.3.
