Yes. http://wwwold.dkuug.dk/jtc1/sc22/wg20/docs/n634.txt:

************************************************************************
(1)     Once special characters (punctuation) have been removed
        from original strings, the ordering is determined by
        scanning forward (left to right) [disregarding case and
        diacriticals].
************************************************************************

And that's horribly broken IMHO. At least, I think it's broken in
shell expansion (translates to: "it's not what I'm used to, it's
different in different locales (POSIX vs. the rest, including en_US),
it makes deleting just uppercase filenames in a range hard")
