It looks like the problem is due to the following facts.

- php_strtoupper() depends on the locale settings.
- toupper() works differently between platforms. Besides it isn't
   designed to handle multibyte strings like UTF-8.

I was mostly testing on Linux so I couldn't replicate it
(now verified on Mac OS X).

I think case folding option doesn't make any sense if it doesn't
work perfectly and we better deprecate it until some unicode-aware
case folding function is available.
