FWIW I tried this program here, and I get

C                       ... ANSI_X3.4-1968 - NO MATCH
POSIX                   ... ANSI_X3.4-1968 - NO MATCH

Note the funny name.  Trying initdb with LC_ALL=C correctly uses
SQL_ASCII (I saw the special case in chklocale.c), but I'm wondering if
we should list those names explicitely.
