As of 7.1, LIKE will always work correctly in non-C locales, because it
will never try to use an index. Concise enough?
What we need, and don't have, is reliable information about which
locales the pre-7.1 indexing hack was actually safe in. A complicating
factor is that non-C locale definitions are probably platform-specific.
