Have you ever read the warning message _and_ the behaviour of the "utf8"
option? This was discussed on #debian-kernel some weeks ago.

Even if it is a bug, it will not get fixed. It is a design decision to
not hold case-translations for utf8 because this table would get huge.
As workaround the utf8 option was added and can be used with any other
iocharset definition.
Now _userspace_ needs to proper define the mapping which matches the
users needs.
