I have set LC_ALL=en_US in my Cygwin setup and it took quite a while
yo giess why did the 7.3 upgrade failed. It gives mysterious error
messages when the initdb was run with that locale in effect.
I still think it would be good idea suggest in Cygwin/postgres
documentaion to say that the loate is crucial when database is created.
Hence he safest way:
$ env LC_ALL=C initdb -D /usr/share/postgresql/data
I remember that there was something special with locate C?
