Attached are two patches:

 - installdoc.patch contains an additional paragraph on the win32 console
   codepage for the chapter "Installation on Windows"
   Due to a lack of SGML-tools, I have only edited the text and not tested
   the SGML code - please check it before merging into the CVS branch.

 - psqlcodepage.patch adds the warning about a problematic codepage to psql.
