Hello,

If you use Latin2 encoding, you can not have 'bssz' and 'bszsz' in an
unique column in the same time.

Is this  a known bug? Do you have any solution? (I use Latin2 encoding,
because I want to order by names, which contains accent characters.)

d43m0n@jerry:~> psql template1
Welcome to psql 7.4.2, the PostgreSQL interactive terminal.

template1=# CREATE DATABASE test WITH ENCODING = 'LATIN2';
CREATE DATABASE
template1=# \c test
You are now connected to database "test".
test=# CREATE TABLE test (name character varying (128) UNIQUE NOT NULL);
NOTICE:  CREATE TABLE / UNIQUE will create implicit index
"test_name_key" for table "test"
CREATE TABLE
test=# INSERT INTO test (name) VALUES ('bssz');
INSERT 17798 1
test=# INSERT INTO test (name) VALUES ('bszsz');
ERROR:  duplicate key violates unique constraint "test_name_key"
test=#

I am running Debian Sid i386 with 2.6.6 kernel, libc6 2.3.2.ds1-12,
locales 2.3.2.ds1-12, postgresql 7.4.2-4 . Locale for postgres user is
"POSIX", locale for the psql client is "hu_HU". Both client and server
encoding for the above connections was Latin2.

Thanks,   d43m0n.
