Nice one. Yep, that works. Cheers..
I'll submit a bug report for this, though I'm on the fence as to wether this is actually a bug per se.. I would have reasonably expected my original syntax to have worked (as it does without any ORDER BY)..

Hi all,
I seem to be having problems constructing a query that combines the use
of distinct, order by, and collate key words.
For instance:
# select distinct(value) from properties order by 1 collate "C";
ERROR: collations are not supported by type integer
LINE 1: ... distinct(value) from properties order by 1 collate "C...
^
select distinct(value) collate "C" from properties order by 1 ;--
Am I just being a numpty here? I can work around it with a subquery, but
this seems like a bug to me. Particularly the first example where my
ordinal field reference is treated as an integer literal. I should note
that the field 'value' is of type 'text' (not integer).
Any input appreciated. Thanks :)
