Just to be clear, that implies that users (and buildfarm members) with
LANG=C.UTF-8 in their environment would not be able to run a plain
"initdb -D data"; they'd get an error. It's hard for me to estimate how
many users might be inconvenienced by that, but it sounds like a risk.

Perhaps for this specific case, and only in initdb, we change
C.anything and POSIX.anything to the builtin provider? CREATE DATABASE
and CREATE COLLATION could still reject such locales.

Regards,
