In pg14:
|postgres=# create database a LC_COLLATE C LC_CTYPE C LOCALE C;
|ERROR:  conflicting or redundant options
|DETAIL:  LOCALE cannot be specified together with LC_COLLATE or LC_CTYPE.

In pg15:
|postgres=# create database a LC_COLLATE "en_US.UTF-8" LC_CTYPE "en_US.UTF-8" LOCALE "en_US.UTF-8" ;
|CREATE DATABASE

f2553d430 actually relaxed the restriction by removing this check:

-       if (dlocale && (dcollate || dctype))
-               ereport(ERROR,
-                               (errcode(ERRCODE_SYNTAX_ERROR),
-                                errmsg("conflicting or redundant options"),
-                                errdetail("LOCALE cannot be specified together with LC_COLLATE or LC_CTYPE.")));

But isn't the right fix to do the corresponding thing in createdb
(relaxing the frontend restriction rather than reverting its relaxation
in the backend).

+	if (locale && !lc_ctype)
 		lc_ctype = locale;
+	if (locale && !lc_collate)
 		lc_collate = locale;
-	}
 
 	if (encoding)
 	{


BTW it's somewhat crummy that it uses a string comparison, so if you
write "UTF8" without a dash, it says this; it took me a few minutes to
see the difference...

postgres=# create database a LC_COLLATE "en_US.UTF8" LC_CTYPE "en_US.UTF8" LOCALE "en_US.UTF8";
ERROR:  new collation (en_US.UTF8) is incompatible with the collation of the template database (en_US.UTF-8)
