<p>Synapse will refuse to set up a new database if it has the wrong values of
<code>COLLATE</code> and <code>CTYPE</code> set, and will log warnings on existing databases. Using
different locales can cause issues if the locale library is updated from
<code>COLLATE</code> and <code>CTYPE</code> set. Synapse will also refuse to start an existing database with incorrect values
of <code>COLLATE</code> and <code>CTYPE</code> unless the config flag <code>allow_unsafe_locale</code>, found in the
<code>database</code> section of the config, is set to true. Using different locales can cause issues if the locale library is updated from
underneath the database, or if a different version of the locale is used on any
