That is a wrong assumption. E.g., the lowercase version of I

definitely not a single-byte

Do turkish systems behave differently for WideLowerCase('I')?
Will they return $0131 instead of $0069 ?
They should, since the uppercase version of i is İ there (i.e., a
capital I with a dot on top). See e.g. http://www.i18nguy.com/unicode/turkish-i18n.

I understand. I just wonder why this bug didn't got priority since
it's pretty basic feature for pascal compiler.
You cannot get bugs fixed in a project like FPC by "giving them
priority".
