Thanks to Tom Lane!
But I have This in my pg_control file:

# od -c pg_control
0000000  \0  \0  \0  \0 001  \0  \0  \0  \0  \0  \0  \0  \b  \0  \0  \0
0000020   ¤ 006 004   < 004  \0  \0  \0  \0      \0  \0  \0  \0 002  \0
0000040   ±   Õ   ë  \v  \0  \0  \0  \0  \0  \0  \0  \0  \0  \0  \0  \0
0000060  \0  \0  \0  \0  \0  \0  \0  \0  \0  \0  \0  \0  \0  \0  \0  \0
*
0020000
#

So no LC_COLLATE and LC_TYPE in the pg_control. But these variables are set in
the user environement!
