Bug reference:      17676
Logged by:          Rob Johnson

PostgreSQL version: 14.5
Operating system:   Ubuntu
Description:

No tables are needed.  Just ran this, comparing strings with lower-case 'x'
and period '.' characters.  The first two columns are false as expected, the
last column is true, which appears to be wrong.

=> select '.' > 'x' as first, '.x' > 'x.' as second, '.xx' > 'x..' as third;

 first | second | third 
-------+--------+-------
 f     | f      | t
(1 row)

My Postgres version:
=> select version();
                                                             version

I am located in the United States and haven't done anything to change
character sets, collations, or anything like that.  The \l+ psql command
shows this for my database, which is called nigeldb:

=> \l+ nigeldb
