I'm skeptical.  In my experience, it is universally considered a misfeature
that in some implementations and locales, [A-Z] matches some (but not all!)
lower case characters.  As I understand it, Emacs long ago decided to have
[A-Z] match just the ASCII upper case characters, regardless of locale.
It'd be nice if gnulib-using programs could do likewise.  Preferably on
all platforms, not just glibc; but even if we could get it working only
on glibc that'd be a win.
