Hi Tatsuo / Tom, [TI] > Apparently your hack does not kill #define USE_WIDE_UPPER_LOWER. Mmm, I think it does, but mind you, the hack was applied to the first machine only (since that was the one with the 'original' buggy glibc causing a postmaster crash when using upper() and stuff), while it was the second one producing the error. This second machine didn't seem to have problems using upper() in earlier versions, but it looks like it does now. Using the hack on the second machine obviously solves the problem there as well, I agree ;) [TI] > BTW, the current code for upper/lower etc. seems to be broken. > PostgreSQL should not use wide-character method if LC_CTYPE is C.
