Yep.

Hmm that's strange I though I compiled already with locale
enabled. Here is the configure line from config.status :

# ./configure --with-tcl --with-perl --with-odbc --with-CC=/opt/pgcc/bin/gcc --
with-CXX=/opt/pgcc/bin/g++ --enable-locale

That's should be good no ?

Anyway I'll check it again. Anyway I think that even without locale
this optimization can lead to incorrect result if you have a a field
starting with \377.
