What is GBK18030? If it's related to either GBK or GB18030,
then it'd be unsafe to use as a server encoding because it's not a
strict ASCII superset (that is, it has multibyte characters in
which not all bytes have the high bit set). The lack of room for
a new server encoding in the pg_enc enum has seemed like a mostly
hypothetical problem because of that restriction.
