Someone already corrected my mistake in this matter.

However, consider functions such as strupr, and you will see what I

Also, since the C standard says that the is* macros are affected by
the current locale, they should probably be extended to support 8-bit
characters beyond 7-bit ASCII, something we currently don't support.
