I've been thinking about this, and while I don't agree it's a bug, I think
that perhaps PostgreSQL should raise a notice or warning that the
destination database has different encoding than the file being restored...?

Obviously I'm not the only one (seemingly) caught out by this so I'm sure it
would save some heartache for people.
