Hmm, regardless of what's causing this, I wonder if we should check that
the locale works at CREATE COLLATION time, rather than fail when you try
to use it. Ie. add a call to pg_newlocale_from_collation() at the end of
DefineCollation(). Or would that just make it more difficult to restore
a database with invalid collations?

Looks like newlocale() call returned 0, but didn't set errno. I don't
think that's supposed to happen. Which platform is this? Which operating
system and version?
