Ouch!
Is there any way to fix that without recreating the database?
Also, are you sure about this? Because the text comparison operators do
seem to work fine...

name like 'blah%' does not work, but name >= 'blah' and name < 'blai'
*does*... aren't these locale-dependent too?

Thanks a lot for your help!
