Nope....  no clusters.  I never got past the initial install and configure.

All I did was install, initdb, alter a few things in postgresql.conf (nothing 
relating to locale) and pg_hba.conf, start postgres using the init script, and 
run the query to check the collation setting.  Nothing more.

Wrong question:( Read the above too quickly and did not pick up you
where getting the setting from pg_settings.

Try again.
Is there more than one database cluster on the machine and if so are you
sure you did the initdb on the same cluster as the select..?
