Thanks to everyone for their suggestions.

After a bit of searching the web I found a response at http://www.geocrawler.com/archives/3/12/2002/2/0/7963711/ that suggested recompiling PostgreSQL with --enable-multibyte.

I recompiled with the -enable--multibyte and -enable-local flags and was then able to use createlang.

In the documentation at https://openacs.org/doc/openacs-4/postgres.html these flags were suggested for Unicode support.  Perhaps this could be rephrased to be less of an option as I wasn't sure if I wanted Unicode support but it seems to be necessary in my case?

Thanks again,

-- Mike.
