Complaints have been made about glibc's absurd and insane preference for
case insensitive collation (at least in en and the euro locales) for
nearly 20 years now.  All w/o resolution.

The other place this hits, and where many first saw it, is that it
allows a command like 'rm [a-z]*' to unlink(2) files like Makefile.
