He specified the _new_ installation as Red Hat 7.1, with PostgreSQL 7.0.3 --
which has no 'hard-wiring' to a C locale for initdb.

If it were an upgrade, it would have just about had to have been from 6.4.2
or earlier -- although it is slimly possible it could be a 6.5.x prior,
unless he had 7.0.x running on a Red Hat <7.0, which would just about have to
be either a machine at RH 6.0, or a machine that has been upgraded from RH
6.0 to RH 6.1 or 2.

I base that on the fact the the collation change was a Red Hat 6.1 and later
deal -- and Red Hat 6.1 shipped PostgreSQL 6.5.2.  Red Hat 6.0 shipped
PostgreSQL 6.4.2, RH 5.1 and 5.2 shipped PG6.3.2, and RH 5.0 shipped PG
6.2.1.  RH 7.0 shipped PG 7.0.2.  Also, an upgrade from RH 6.0 to either 6.1
or 6.2 doesn't force the i18n issue -- but, IIRC, an upgrade from 6.0 to 7.x
_does_.
