Yup.

C. (If you do "make check" then the regression script will set up
a temp installation with the expected locale.)

At the time, the newly-added hash-aggregation code would be used for
these queries, causing them to produce results in an order that had
nothing to do with any locale's notion of sortedness. I could actually
revert the 1.8 changes, I think, because it was an error for hashing
to be used on char(N) data, and as of now the planner doesn't do it
anymore.
