The comparison routines for text and char data type give incorrect results
if the input data contains characters greater than 127.  As these routines
perform the comparison using signed char variables all character codes
greater than 127 are interpreted as less than 0.  These codes are used to
encode the iso8859 char sets.
The other text-like data types seem to work as expected as they use unsigned
chars in comparisons.
