Have you noticed that the tests have failed on Cirrus CI runs of this patch?
https://cirrus-ci.com/github/postgresql-cfbot/postgresql/cf%2F5277
It might be related to the test machines having a different *default*
locale than your local environment, which could result in a different
sort order for the test data. You may need to add an explicit COLLATE
clause to the tests to ensure consistent sorting across systems.
