Nothing to add to Tom's response, but it does strike me as odd that they
have a handbook in German and a localisation guide for their application
but don't know about different sort orders in different locales.

Might be worth asking on their support lists/groups about what the
underlying system understands about locales and sorting.

Oh, and if you could let them know about PG's locale handling at the
same time that would be helpful indeed.
