Hi,
While reviewing [1], I found that the CREATE COLLATION doesn't throw an error if duplicate options are specified, see [2] for testing a few cases on HEAD. This may end up accepting some of the weird cases, see [2]. It's against other option checking code in the server where the duplicate option is detected and an error thrown if found one. Attached a patch doing that. I chose to have the error message "option \"%s\" specified more than once" and parser_errposition because that's kind of agreed in [3].
Thoughts?
