--no-locale does work on Windows - I recently added it to the buildfarm
script's initdb settings to handle an odd Windows issue - I forget
where, but possibly in the PL installcheck tests which I recently got
working. How things will work with that setting on a non-English locale
box I don't know - it might help if we had a Windows buildfarm member
from one of our colleagues in a non-English speaking country.
FWIW, I just added --no-locale to the initdb args in pg_regress.sh on
loris and got a clean run of make check.
Regarding the race condition, it certainly sounds like something that
needs more than a bandaid.
