setlocale(LC_ALL, 'russian') solved the problem.
Thanks!

ok, that confirms what I was suspecting.
What happens is that setlocale is now actually working. As in really set
the
Locale, per thread, instead of per process (most likely on request or
server initializations).
It most likely worked because your system local is set correctly.
Please try using the correct Locale ID (see the msdn link to get the
right one
for Russia).

In 5.3.5 these functions work as expected even without setlocale().
I tried setlocale() after this problem was found.
I use Apache 2.2.17 (downloaded @ http://www.apachelounge.com/download/)
and php as a module (php5apache2_2.dll)
Just checked CLI - functions work fine

ru_RU would not work reliably before (or now) as it is not a recognized
locale.
See the links on the setlocale documentation page for a list of the
available
locale (and cp).
However, the only change in 5.3.6 is that the Locale related APIs are
not per
thread instead of per process. Making them thread safe and avoid many
possible
crashes.
Which web server and SAPI do you use? Can you try this code using CLI
(cmd line)
too?

I had to go back to 5.3.5 where these functions work as expected.
5.3.6 breaks existing and working scripts

Please see the note about Windows and Locale strings at
http://www.php.net/setlocale
For a portable and reliable locale support, I would suggest to move to
intl,
