Problem with sorting on PostgreSQL 9.0.3

[Jean Pereira <admin@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm having a problem with the sort of names with accents 
In the version of postgres 8.4.3, I run the following command: 

SELECT name FROM person ORDER BY name 

And I have the following result: 

                       name 
-------------------------------------------------- - 
 Abel Clara Valentin 
 Abel Felipe Mundel 
 Abel Lopes de Amorin 
 Abel Rodriguez 
 ... 
 Eric Alves de Lima 
 Erico Borinelli 
 Eric Brizola 
 Eric Correa 
 Eric Eichenberger 
 Erico Eichstadt 
 ... 
 Zulmira Fatima Ribeiro Albrecht 
 Zulma Siewe 
 Zulmira Dutra da Rocha 
(26,445 rows) 


The bank orders usually, he puts his name with an accent in the right order, or 
That is, he does not think the accent to order, from what I saw. 

In the PG version 9.0.3 
I run the same command and got the following result: 

                       name 
-------------------------------------------------- - 
 Abel Clara Valentin 
 Abel Felipe Mundel 
 Abel Lopes de Amorin 
 Abel Rodriguez 
 ... 
 Eric Alves de Lima 
 Erico Borinelli 
 Eric Correa 
 Eric Eichenberger 
 Erico Eichstadt 
 Erico Eischstaedt 
 ... 
 Zulma Siewe 
 Zulmira Fatima Ribeiro Albrecht 
 Zulmira Dutra da Rocha 
 <C3> <89> Rich Brizola 
(26,445 rows) 


The "<C3> <89> Brizola rich" equals "Eric Brizola" the outcome of PG 8.4.3. 

If someone can help me I appreciate it.
