New description:

 In the Postgis 1.3.5 release, the 'postgis_restore.pl' contrib file allow
 the user to specify createdb options.

 In a recent issue (#45 :
 [http://code.google.com/p/postgis/issues/detail?id=45&can=1&q=postgis_restore.pl
 http://code.google.com/p/postgis/issues/detail?id=45&can=1&q=postgis_restore.pl]),
 the createdb option was extended to createlang ans psql commands.

 Though, createdb/createlang/psql do not accept the same options !

 For example if you specify --encoding=LATIN9 for createdb, an error occurs
 while executing 'createlang --encoding=LATIN9' and 'psql
 --encoding=LATIN9'...


 Maybe we should add more options arguments specific to createlang and
 psql.
