Description:
------------
ctype_lower detects non-lower characters when the local is set to 'en_US.UTF-8'
on Mac OSX 10.8. This phenomenon cannot't be reproduced on Ubuntu Linux.
This phenomenon means ctype_lower detects Chinese characters and Hangul (Korean
Alphabet) which have no concept about lower and upper cases.
The test cases for C language and showing misdetected characters can be seen
here:

The tests for BSD-compatible OSes are needed judging from Xcode's manual.

an3/islower.3.html
ctype_upper also detects non-upper characters.
Test script:
---------------
$expected = [];
$result = [];
for ($i = 0; $i <= 0xFF; ++$i) {
setlocale(LC_ALL, 'C');
if (ctype_lower(chr($i))) {
$expected[] = $i;
}
setlocale(LC_ALL, 'en_US.UTF-8');
if (ctype_lower(chr($i))) {
$result[] = $i;
}
}
var_dump(
[] === array_diff($result, $expected)
);
Expected result:
----------------
bool(true)
Actual result:
--------------
bool(false)
