Windows or not, the locale name suggests *very* strongly that it is not
a Unicode-using locale.  If the database encoding doesn't match what the
locale is expecting then strange sort order is exactly what you are
likely to get.

We should defend against these sorts of configuration problems more
thoroughly, but it seems to be hard in general to determine what
character set a locale is actually using :-(
