From: Tom Lane <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

the patch discussed here [1] that supposedly made the win32 msvc builds use
lc_locale properly has flaws.

I think a large part of the confusion that's been evidenced in this
thread is because you are submitting a "bug report" about a patch that is
not in fact in 8.3.1 (and is unlikely ever to appear in 8.3.x at all).
It's unclear what you are really testing: stock 8.3.1?  8.3.1 plus that
patch?  CVS HEAD plus the patch?

it's the 8.3.1 win32 binary coming from postgresql.org i'm using.

i was digging in the mailing list archives for some answers and found the conversation about the patch which i believed to be included in 8.3.1. sorry for the mess :|

nevertheless the problem/bug exists: changing LC_MESSAGES has no effect on the windows boxes, while it works on the non-win32 systems. all i really would like is to get english system messages back on our non-english win32 servers - like they were pre 8.3.1.

the main reason for this being: the german error messages have non-ascii special characters in the error text ('»' and '«') which mess with some of our applications (whereas english messages use '"').


regards,
thomas
