Sorry, I was using a term of art there. This isn't about data values,
it's about parsed expression trees. See the equal() function in
src/backend/nodes/equalfuncs.c. If two expression trees match according
to equal(), then they must necessarily have the same collation property,
because equal() compares all the fields and in particular the collation
fields.
