Re: Issues with citation locators in German

[John MacFarlane <jgm-TVLZxgkOlNX2fBVCVOL8/A@public.gmane.org>]

Thanks for the report.  I believe I've fixed this with
2b51f54e19373381df7f71f3094f97cc79dd82d2

I had tested with non-US locators, but not with German.
German is distinctive in that the short-form locators
have capital letters (e.g. S.).  We were case-folding
the potential locators before looking them up in the
table, but the keys in the table weren't case-folded,
so German locators failed to match!
