It depends - I'm reasonably sure that the default initialization is 
working properly.  (I don't know how many people have encountered the
issue - it's been noted a couple of times over the past couple of years).

But I also made the feature configurable, and (aside from seeing that it 
"works") had not verified all of the slices of functionality for that. 
So I'll do some more checks, add documentation on the $latin1-expr 
variable, and (assuming that no other new bugs gets reported), make that 
the basis for 9.7zb
