Its comparatively easier to grep for when you notice something itchy.

I actually am quite doubtfull that thats the correct value for patternsel and
the other places I added it in the patch. I think that should that be C. On
the other hand its not likely to be that influential.
that looks like it should be corrected btw:
src/backend/tsearch/{wparser_def.c,ts_locale.c}
Oid collation = DEFAULT_COLLATION_OID; /*TODO*/
Thats occuring 6 times in there...
