I cannot reproduce this problem on Debian Jessie 8 using grep 2.20
from the Debian distribution.  Here is my test case.

  rwp@rainy:~$ echo ONE | GREP_OPTIONS= grep one

  rwp@rainy:~$ echo ONE | GREP_OPTIONS=--ignore-case grep one
  ONE

  rwp@rainy:~$ echo ONE | env -i GREP_OPTIONS=--ignore-case grep one
  ONE

  rwp@rainy:~$ grep --version
  grep (GNU grep) 2.20

Works for me.

Perhaps you have some incompatible LC_COLLATE and LC_CTYPE variables
mixing?
