That's what we saw. The query inside IMPORT FOREIGN SCHEMA assumes a NULL
collation means default, without asking the server what that default is. I
was thinking that we could change the select
inside postgresImportForeignSchema and replace
collname,
with something borrowed from information_schema.sql like
coalesce(collname, (SELECT encoding FROM pg_catalog.pg_database
WHERE datname = pg_catalog.current_database()))
which itself isn't right because encoding names don't match up perfectly
with collation names.
