I can't answer that question authoritatively. If the locales obey the
same rules, and pg_controldata has the same output for the relevant
values (as Heikki mentioned), I *think* it will work.
But, as Simon pointed out, is it really worth the risk? PITR is closer
to a physical process, and it's probably wise to just assume it's not
portable.
