Ok, confirmation. On my home machine, which was upgraded to RedHat 6.1 from
RedHat 6.0, I get the correct results:
column1
------
1
11
100
2
(4 rows)

Update: regression tests that fail on my 6.0-6.1 home machine: float8 and
geometry -- which are normal to fail on RedHat any version. IOW, no collation
problems at home! Oh, I'm running the exact same postgresql binary RPM's at
home as I am running on the fresh RH 6.1 install at work.

Time to dig into date and time stamps on installed RPMs versus updated RPMs.

Frans, try installing RedHat 6.0 on a box, then upgrading to RH 6.1, then rerun
your tests and see what happens.
