Yes. ICU will use abbreviated keys on every platform, including Windows.

You need to use an ICU collation. It must be a per-column collation,
as you cannot currently use ICU for an entire database. (This
limitation should be removed in the next release or two.)
Ok, so I have to explicitly specify like this:
create table test(id serial primary key, name varchar collate "nb_NO" not null);
Will ICU be used here as long as PG is compiled with ICU-suppoert, as the debian-packages are, or do I have to specify collation-provider?
Do I have to explicitly specify collation when using ORDER by on that column for index and abbreviated keys to be used?
Thanks.
