What platform is this exactly?  And exactly how did you build/install
Postgres?

We've seen reports of this ilk before.  So far I've written them off
as indicating serious brain damage in the platform's locale support,
but I'm starting to wonder whether there's something else going on.
AFAIR the previous reports involved locales much less commonly used
than en_US.
