The stumbling block to that is that pg_locale_struct has a field of
type UCollator. Of course there are workarounds, but I think all of
them are strictly worse than including <ucol.h> here.

Good point. If a .cpp file wants access to the C++ APIs, it'd have
to include <unicode/ucol.h> before not after including pg_locale.h.
That should work AFAICS, but this #undef doesn't help.
