This could happen when your locale isn't properly set up. If, for
example, LC_CTYPE is set to C, your pager thinks this character isn't
printable and tries to do something smart with it. You can display the
current setup by running "locale".

Does it work when you export LC_CTYPE=de_DE before running psql?
