Bug reference:      17676
Logged by:          Rob Johnson
Email address:      robj@hightouchinc.com
PostgreSQL version: 14.5
Operating system:   Ubuntu
Description:       

No tables are needed.  Just ran this, comparing strings with lower-case 'x'
and period '.' characters.  The first two columns are false as expected, the
last column is true, which appears to be wrong.

=> select '.' > 'x' as first, '.x' > 'x.' as second, '.xx' > 'x..' as third;
