New submission from Mark Summerfield:

I am using Python 3.4.3 on Xubuntu 14.04 LTS 64-bit.

I have a program that when run repeatedly sometimes what I expect, and 
sometimes does not:

$ ~/tmp/normbug.py 
OK ('The AEnid oevre', '==', 'The AEnid oevre')
$ ~/tmp/normbug.py 
OK ('The AEnid oevre', '==', 'The AEnid oevre')
$ ~/tmp/normbug.py 
OK ('The AEnid oevre', '==', 'The AEnid oevre')
$ ~/tmp/normbug.py 
BUG ('The aenid oevre', '!=', 'The AEnid oevre')
$ ~/tmp/normbug.py 
OK ('The AEnid oevre', '==', 'The AEnid oevre')
$ ~/tmp/normbug.py 
OK ('The AEnid oevre', '==', 'The AEnid oevre')
$ ~/tmp/normbug.py 
OK ('The AEnid oevre', '==', 'The AEnid oevre')
$ ~/tmp/normbug.py 
OK ('The AEnid oevre', '==', 'The AEnid oevre')
$ ~/tmp/normbug.py 
OK ('The AEnid oevre', '==', 'The AEnid oevre')
$ ~/tmp/normbug.py 
BUG ('The aenid oevre', '!=', 'The AEnid oevre')
$ ~/tmp/normbug.py 
BUG ('The aenid oevre', '!=', 'The AEnid oevre')
$ ~/tmp/normbug.py 
OK ('The AEnid oevre', '==', 'The AEnid oevre')

As you can see, sometimes the left (actual) is case-folded, and sometimes it 
isn't which is surprising given the code (which is attached).

Of course this could be a mistake on my part; maybe I've misunderstood how the 
unicode normalizing works.
