... Except,.. It was never decided if the 'C' locale optimisations was going to be removed if/when implementing ICU. Tho I think the conclusion was a postgresql.conf parameter to enable/disable the optimisations. Either way, this code is now obsolete. ...

Oh, meaning if the locale is C we bypass locale lookups? I think we will have to see what performance we have with things.

Uhh, not quite: If locale is 'C' the current assumption is 7-bit ASCII for upper/lower/initcap. ICU is capable of properky doing upper/lower/initcap except for the cases described in this (obsolete) patch.
