You really can't, because there is no guarantee that any given machine
will have anything except "C" and "POSIX". But there's another problem:
I believe this test will fail on any machine where the database is
created with an encoding different from UTF8, because that encoding is
named in some of the error messages in the expected output.
This stuff is not easy to test in a portable way.
