Can we fix things so that we're not at glibc's mercy, even there? We could preprocess the regular expression [A-Z], and turn it into [ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ], before we hand it off to glibc. POSIX would allow this behavior, and users would prefer it. This could be done in a gnulib module, so that other GNU programs could also use the fix.
