[mapserver-dev] problem with euro symbol in getFeatureInfo request

[Guillaume Sueur]

Hi Assefa,

Never mind, that was a stupid postgresql client_encoding problem, set to 
latin1 and not to latin9.

Sorry for the noise, and thanks for your piece of info, which reminded 
me of some other problems I had recently :-)
