I think that should be fine. I use PostgreSQL 8.0.1 on Linux (Gentoo) 
without these problems (I used cs_CZ.utf8 to init my db). What you write 
seems to me that you have your database initialized to something else 
than xy_XY.utf8 which must be used to have databases working correctly 
with UNICODE. Try 'locale -a' and choose your locale that has *.utf8 to 
initialize the database. Then things should be O.K. :-)
I don't remember I've seen some note in documentation that users must 
use for databases the same encoding as they used for initdb. If this is 
true, it would be time saving to mention this in documentation (if it is 
not already there).
