I will try to look into that. > * I think that it's not okay that convert_string_datum() still uses > strxfrm() without considering if it's an ICU build.

But we'll still be using strxfrm for the database default locale, so we need to keep that check. -- Peter Eisentraut http://www.2ndQuadrant.com/ PostgreSQL Development, 24x7 Support, Remote DBA, Training & Services -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
