Hello,

As postgresql is widely used in the world,many Chinese users are looking
forward to use such a high performanced database management
system.However since the Chinese new codepage standard GB18030 is not
completely supported,postgresql is limitted to be used in China.

Now I have managed to implement the GB18030 support upon the latest
version,so the following functions are added after the patches are added.

-Chinese GB18030 encoding is available on front-end side,while on
backend side,EUC_CN or MIC is used.
-Encoding convertion between MIC and GB18030 is implement.
-GB18030 locale support is available on front-end side.
-GB18030 locale test is added.

Any help for testing with these patches and sugguestions for GB18030
support are greatly appreciated.

We need to apply your pacthes to the current source tree(we are not
allowed to add new feature stable source tree). Your pacthes for
encnames.c pg_wchar.h and wchar.c are rejected due to the difference
between 7.2 and current.

Can you give me patches encnames.c pg_wchar.h and wchar.c against
current?

Unicode conversion map staffs ISO10646-GB18030.TXT utf8_to_gb18030.map
UCS_to_GB18030.pl and gb18030_to_utf8.map are looks good for
current. So I will apply them.
