maybe another option would be modifying tr to recognize other [new]

sys.mk), not need any patching, and not interfere with other uses of
locale.
That would be rather ugly.
If tr a-z A-Z is supposed to be deceiving in some locales, then let it
remain so unconditionally.

it can still be as ugly as one wants it to be, and in some ports that
might be fine. but this option would provide a very simple option to reign
in how ugly it is.
