If that's the case, I wonder if OP could write a function that would convert from the ASCII code-point ot the EBCDIC codepoint. For instance, (using the function at https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Binary_Replace) convert A to char 193, `select binary_replace('Anne'::bytea, 'A'::bytea, '\xc1'::bytea);` and then sort by the result of this function.
