They can't work on multibyte strings. This is evident from the fact that strncasecmp gets one integer as argument, not two integers. In a Turkish locale, for example, "i" (1 byte) and "İ" (2 bytes) are the same modulo case. I agree that the POSIX language is murky because "character" there is equivalent to "byte", and yet the same page talks about characters and bytes... For multibyte strings, one needs other functions.
