Or specify an encoding explicitly.
I was wondering what we ought to do about this. I can't find any clear
documentation about these locales on my Mac, but it sure looks like they
are effectively encoding-agnostic, which means that it might be
reasonable to default to SQL_ASCII --- anyway there is certainly not any
basis for selecting a different default. However, if we want to do that
it's not a one-liner change, because the API for
pg_get_encoding_from_locale isn't designed to allow for this.
