Hi Alexander,
I can reproduce this by running LANG="fr_FR.ISO8859-1" initdb, then
running installcheck (on some other OSes that might be called just
"fr_FR"). See this comment in mbutils.c:
* The functions return a palloc'd, null-terminated string if conversion
* is required. However, if no conversion is performed, the given source
* string pointer is returned as-is.
You call pfree() on the result of pg_server_to_any() without checking
if it just returned in the input pointer (for example, it does that if
you give it an empty string). That triggers an assertion failure
somewhere inside pfree(). The following fixes that for me, and is
based on code I found elsewhere in the tree.

+ if (mbstr1 != utf8str1)

With that fixed it no longer crashes, but then the regression test
fails due to differences in the output, which look like locale
ordering differences.
