Hi,
I am sure that 1) is correct, allthough I think I've overlooked 2)!
pg_controldata reports: (last 2 rows)
LC_COLLATE: en_US
LC_CTYPE: en_US
Is it possible to change this after you've run initdb?
Regards,
Niclas Gustafsson

1. Does the locale you are using sort as you want?
2. Did you initdb with that locale set? (Use pg_controldata from
contrib to see what locale the backend is using.) locale must be set
correctly for initdb, to ensure that indexes don't get broken by changes
of locale.
