It seems to me that 3 is OK.
Another possibility is that InitPostgres can only fill up rel cache and
GUC processing can stay on the same place. But in general, this problem
can affect any other GUC variable which has assign hook and needs to
lookup.
I don't know how it works before, but I'm afraid that user can get error
message in server encoding before it is correctly set.
