I cannot find any resources for "de_DE_phoneb" in Web. What is the true name for it? Locale names should be in <Country>_<Language>.<CodePage> format on Windows. If you can find the counterpart name for it, you can initialize PostgreSQL DB with the locale, and <CodePage> or UTF-8 encoding. > Background: I moved an old application from a borland paradox database > to postgesql.

I'm afraid of "de_DE_phoneb" is an original locale implementation in your old database. If so, PostgreSQL cannot support it because postgres depends on locale libraries in each platform.
