What platform is this? You should complain to the relevant people about
their broken locale definitions. If they're going to set en_US as the
default locale then it darn well ought to work in all locale categories.
In the meantime, try
export LC_ALL=C
(or equivalent syntax if you use a C shell) before you run initdb.
You'll be better off running Postgres in C locale anyway.
