Random thought: Wouldn't it be better if there were a setting in psql
that set the linestyle to unicode only if the client encoding was
actually UTF8? This might become more relevant as we set the client
encoding automatically in psql in 9.1. Then a setting of, say,
"unicode-auto" would do the right thing in all cases.
