Changes to pg_dump/psql following collation "C" in the catalog

Hi,

One consequence of using the "C" collation in the catalog versus
the db collation is that pg_dump -t with a regexp may not find
the same tables as before. It happens when these conditions are
all met:
- the collation of the database is not "C"
- the regexp has locale-dependant parts
- the names to match include characters that are sensitive to
locale-dependant matching

For instance a table named "rapport_journée_12" in an fr_FR.UTF-8 db
used to be found by pg_dump -t 'rapport_\w+_\d+', and is now missed
in the devel version.

It seems that to fix that, we could qualify the references to columns such
as "relname" and "schema_name" with COLLATE "default" clauses in the
queries that use pattern-matching in client-side tools, AFAICS
pg_dump and psql.

Before going any further with this idea, is there agreement that it's an
issue to address and does this look like the best way to do that?

Best regards,
