at present, having several configurations matching the same locale leads
to unpredictable results. Leave only one.
In 8.3 we have special flag to mark fts config
which could be selectable as default.

Ah thanks.
Is tsearch2() hard coded to use 'simple', or could i delete 'simple' and just use 'default' somehow?
It's not a big issue if I have to use simple, I will just have to redeploy some code that is currently using 'default'.
Matt.
