Does the new protocol fix the fact that psql \encoding doesn't see SET
CLIENT_ENCODING changes.

regression=# \encoding
SQL_ASCII
regression=# set client_encoding TO unicode;
SET
regression=# \encoding
UNICODE
regression=#

OK, psql docs updated to remove mention of that problem.

It was still mentioned in the psql manual page. I know because I added
