Bug reference: 15317
Logged by: sumit pahwa

PostgreSQL version: 10.3
Operating system: Linux
Description:

Version of Postgres deployed
PostgreSQL 10.3 on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, compiled by gcc (GCC) 4.8.5 20150623
(Red Hat 4.8.5-16), 64-bit

When I execute a query
select 'ALEX DARGAY' > 'ALEXANDER';
It should return false as output because ascii value of space is lower than
ascii value of 'A'.
But the output is true, which is incorrect.
In a bigger picture, It gives a corrupted sorted order.

However, this works fine on PostgreSQL 10.4, compiled by Visual C++ build
1800, 64-bit

Please suggest.

Thanks
