Description

The code at this URL demonstrates the bug (note you need to change MAXXFRMLEN to * 10 though):

http://www.postgresql.org/message-id/attachment/43201/strcolltest.c

Basically, strxfrm() and strcoll() sort results are not matching. This seems to mainly impact strings that fall into the UNDEFINED part of the collation tables.

While the locale data problem is related, it's separate issue (now #7962).

I've simplified the linked test case for this one, to exclude the qsort "feature" of being uncertain of the sorting order of equal entries.
