DETAIL: The operating system could not find any locale data for the locale name "Foo".
# stuff which is incoherent:
sql> CREATE COLLATION "french" (locale='fr_FR.utf8'); ERROR: could not create locale "fr_FR.utf8": Success
The collation creation fails, not sure why yet. However, the "error ..
success" message is especially unhelpful.
Raising client_min_messages does not add more information.
I could not get the same error with 9.3.4.
