Bug reference:      5743
Logged by:          Vlad Romascanu
Email address:      vromasc...@accurev.com
PostgreSQL version: 8.4.3
Operating system:   Windows, Linux
Description:        Regexp engine fails to case-insensitively match
multi-byte codepoints
Details: 

Already reported in 2006 but seems to have fallen through the cracks (I can
find no followup.)  Problem still exists in v8.4.3.

Problem still appears to be pg_wc_tolower downcasting to char before calling
tolower() (instead of calling towlower().)

This one of several inconsistencies unfortunately still present in
case-insensitive regexp vs. LOWER(str) [str_lower] treatment (including char
to wchar conversion using MultiByteToWideChar/mbstowcs vs. char2wchar, or
towlower vs. pg_wc_tolower.)

Current workaround is to use LOWER(str) ~ LOWER('regexp').
