Hi folks,

when compiling 5.2.1-RELEASE lib/libedit on my amd64 box I end up with
lots of compiling errors complaining non-ASCII characters in "fcns.h".
"fcns.h" is automatically generated by "makelist" which uses tr(1) to
translate function names to #define's. The original command:

sort | LC_ALL=C tr 'a-z' 'A-Z' | $AWK '

does not work in my environment (LANG=de_DE.ISO8859-15). If I change
it to:

sort | LC_ALL=C tr '[:lower:]' '[:upper:]' | $AWK '

everything works fine.

Is this an error in my environment or should "makelist" be changed?

Burkard
