configuration has NOTHING with language ! This is a most frequent myth about
configuration. It's just the way we chose for default_text_search_config to
use language part of locale at initdb time.
text search configuration is just a bind between parser to use for
breaking document by lexems and mapping between lexeme type and dictionaries.
