Hi,

Description of problem: initdb fails on tr_TR.UTF-8. OS is Fedora Core 5
on a 32 bit platform, and an up2date system.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): PostgreSQL
7.4.13.

How reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Compile PostgreSQL 7.4.13
2. Create data dir
3. Run initdb with --locale=tr_TR.UTF-8

Actual results:

-bash-3.1$ bin/initdb -D data/ --locale=tr_TR.UTF-8
The files belonging to this database system will be owned by user
"postgres".
This user must also own the server process.

The database cluster will be initialized with locale tr_TR.UTF-8.
<snipped>
creating template1 database in data//base/1... FATAL: XX000: failed to
initialize DateStyle to "ISO, MDY"
LOCATION: InitializeGUCOptions, guc.c:1881

initdb: failed

Expected results:
The initdb should succeed.

Additional information:

AFAIR we have fixed this early 7.4 series, but it is back now. I'm not
sure when this reappeared. I haven't tested 7.4.X for a long time.
