afaict we do none of this. Using tolower() on a char* variable can not
possibly do the right thing for multiple-byte character sets. Your
example (single byte to two bytes) can't work either.

Tatsuo and others: what is the state of MB for these cases? Should I
just code the single-byte LOCALE solution for now, or do we have some
other code I should be referring to?
