Hmm - very strange. Your LANG setting seems sensible, and I did
something similar on my Mac to get subversion to work. It could be that
the postgres user-account isn't importing these settings, but it
certainly seemed to get time/money/etc correct.

If it's nothing to do with the language settings, I'd check you have the
relevant files for tsearch. Look in $SHAREDIR/tsearch_data for a bunch
of <language>.stop files and perhaps .dict or .affix files

You can find out where your sharedir is with "pg_config --sharedir".
