Hi there,

triggered by the recent questions about sorting, I started digging into my 
problems with upper('ä')='ä' when using LC_CTYPE and LANG = de_DE.UTF-8.

I have checked with Java (toUpperCase()) and C (see attached program, might 
help others) that my locale is working, but postgres (initdb and postmaster 
running with LANG=de_DE.utf8, -E UNICODE) still insists that upper('ä') 
equals 'ä'. What else can be wrong?

Mit freundlichem Gruß / With kind regards

        }
        wchar_t* text = L"ä";
        printf( "is: towupper(%x) = %x\n", text[0], towupper(text[0]) );
        return 0;
