Wow, they still haven't fixed that crap.  Been biting people for at
least 8 years now.

I can't tell if locales are insanely buggy or insane by design, or if
the shell is insane.  Just digging into that code makes my head hurt so
I have no real idea.

The only way I've found to get sane behavior in the shell is
LC_COLLATE=C which forces your ranges such as [A-Z] to match, you know,
A to Z, instead of whatever horrible buggy inexcusable behavior you get
with most locales.
