<h3>Unicode encoding on a Win32 server</h3>
<p>
The database <INFO> is created to use Unicode (UTF8) encoding to store data and
is operated on a PostgreSQL 8.0 server running on a Win32 server.
</p>
<p>
The PostgreSQL 8.0 Win32 implementation is not able to sort character strings according
to appropriate collation sequences, because the operating system doesn't offer sufficient
support for this.
</p>
<p>
For this installation, it is recommended to use a locale specific encoding, run the cluster on
a different operating system or upgrade your database cluster to PostgreSQL 8.1 which has
additional code to deal with unicode collations to solve the issue.
