It works just fine for all locales supported by cygwin, which is just the
"C" locale :)

Letting perl know what the encoding of your data is should enable /i to work
correctly.  How you would do this depends on what exactly you are doing; it
may just require a "use encoding 'cp1251';".  (I assume 2151 was a typo.)
