Subject: PATCH: 3.1.6-test-1: Don't use strcoll() with ranges
Date: Sun, 18 Jul 1999 17:42:20 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <9907181542.AA28118@ibmth.df.unipi.it> (raw)

Bart's pointed out to me that there was some discussion about problems with
using strcoll() inside character ranges:  for one thing, [A-Z] in the de
locale matches all characters, which is not good.  So this just uses ASCII
collation in this one case.  You can also use [[:upper:]], of course; that
seems to be safer without this patch.
