For the record, I *like* OS X; I'm typing this on a Macbook Pro.  But
it doesn't do everything, and one of the things it doesn't do well is
POSIX-spec locale support.

As you now know from having looked at the archives, there've been many
discussions of changing PG to not rely on the platform's locale
support.  But the bang-for-buck ratio of any such change doesn't seem
very attractive --- we have a lot of higher priority things to spend
our finite development manpower on.
