Well, the comparison function varstr_cmp() contains this comment:
/*
* In some locales strcoll() can claim that nonidentical strings are
* equal. Believing that would be bad news for a number of reasons,
* so we follow Perl's lead and sort "equal" strings according to

This might not be strictly necessary, seeing that citext obviously
doesn't work that way, but resolving this is really an orthogonal issue.
If you fix that and you have a locale that does what you want, my patch
will help you get your example working.
