Hm, possibly you weren't using the same character set encoding that the
locale was expecting? It's not very well documented, but every locale
setting works only with a specific encoding.

If the locale definition really is wrong for your purposes, it seems
like what you want to do is write a new locale definition that does what
you want. Then you could use it with any Unix program, not only
Postgres. (I've never done this, but I can't see that it would be any
harder than writing C code inside Postgres to do it ...)
