List pgsql-general
Linux 2.4.23 on AMD 450MHz.
pgsql 7.4.1
configure --enable-multibyte=UNICODE
locale is zh_TW.Big5

IIRC, when I did "initdb -E UNICODE" or "createdb db1", I
saw the following message from pgsql:
...locale "C"...

The problem:

db1=# select distinct * from t53 where f1='J200312014' order
