I tried out my test program with FreeBSD 9.2-RC2. I linked my program to the system libc. I explicitly set the collation to "en_US.UTF-8". I can't see any header bytes, and that implementation meets the standard my configure test looks for generally, so I guess this was only ever an issue peculiar to Mac OS X (or the collations it ships with?). I probably should have mentioned before that Windows is still broken (I don't plan on optimizing Windows at all due to complexity around the UTF-8 hacks on that platform, but right now the sortsupport routine just returns NULL, which is not acceptable). -- Peter Geoghegan -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
