SQL Errors

The null encoding is coming from a call to nl_langinfo(CODESET) where 
CODESET appears to be #define to 0 but I"m not sure of that.

This is new to me.  I found nl_langinfo doing a google search but, 
again, I thought if someone has tracked this down before, it would save 
me time.

Thanks,
Perry
p.s. should we move this to gnucash-devel ?  I subscribed to it as well.
