That bug number never came by here --- might've gotten eaten by spam
filters? Anyway, we've seen many many complaints about strange sort
ordering, and every one of them boiled down to Postgres doing what
the LC_COLLATE locale setting told it to. Try "show lc_collate".
If it's not "C" you might wish to re-initdb in C locale.
