Yes, but as I replied to Tom, it only contains a days worth of data, then 
pg_dump()ed and truncated.
Tas data is imported to
* the faulty one (ibm2/debian/9.4)
* the correct one (tp/ubuntu/pg 10.6)

Hmm did not realize that. It’s hard to know when to leave out ’insignificant 
details’ and when not to.
(Ie when the details turn out to be significant)
I saw a machine - with its current data - sort in a for me strange way.
Then it struck me that I have another (semi-retired) machine with basically the 
same data,
Enetered the same way, with the same import files, that works

So in a sense many instances, but not really.
I mean, the pg_dump does copy-commands.
I could have inserted that by hand.
