Ok. I'll test it with various japanese and chinese charset's then.
They need it at most, and my apps must support it. :)

Okay, I'm doing it by my own now and will post the patches to pgsql-bugs 
also.

At first postgresql-8.0.0beta1 has some problem with src/port/dirmode.c
and it needs new configure switches.
The cygwin version is almost feature complete now, just no tcl.

./configure --with-template=cygwin --disable-thread-safety --enable-nls 
--enable-integer-datetimes --enable-multibyte --with-python --with-perl 
--with-java --with-CXX --with-openssl --without-tcl --prefix=$Prefix 
--sysconfdir=/etc --datadir=/usr/share --mandir=/usr/share/man 
--with-docdir=$Prefix/share/doc/$pkg-$version

-7.4.5-1 changes later.
