Dear php-team,

I´ve seen that 5.2.13RC1 is in progress. Could you fix this bug in this
version, please ?
Because I need turkish locale.

Thanks in advance.

Dmitry, can you look at it please? It is still reproduceable with 5.2
and 5.3.

It is unbelievable that this bug persists into 2009.  It is time to fix

it.

Setting LC_CTYPE to something other than tr_TR solves nothing, it's not
even a workaround, you just get a bastardized locale in which regex
patterns do not match Turkish char.s and XXlower/XXupper functions
become nothing but a joke.
This bug has been around for ages, so it's not fixable? OK, don't fix
it, but at least provide a means to turn off(*) the horrible PHP design
decision "case-insensitive function lookup", so that we have an option
to avoid all this mess.

(*)like, a Php.ini directive

i guess nobody looks at this bug, 
setlocale(LC_ALL, 'tr_TR');
setlocale(LC_CTYPE, 'en_US');

sure solves this but it is still a bug :)
