The DOS/Windows drive letters are ASCII, so I think [A-Za-z] should be
good enough.  (The use of [A-z] was on purpose: in the C locale it
includes the 6 letters between Z and a which DOS allows to use as
drive letters.  But I don't think it's worth the hassle to deal with
those 6 letters, which are almost never used.)
