Like I said above quoted parts, the likely cause for this problem was my
own mistake by closing down postgresql the wrong way.

Of course it can be a hardware problem, but I still don't think so.
However, I can't replicate the original problem at this time and
original broken files (with the original problem from the time before my
feeble debugging attempts) are gone at this point anyway.

I think you can close this bug report down as a bogus one and I'll get
back to you if I have something solid to show later on.

the administrator finally configured properly the postgres 8.2, and the
reported problem looks to be fixed. i ran successfully the ILIKE test on
hungarian language.
