Is there any way to duplicate this? It doesn't happen for me or any catalog
I have, that I know of.

It could be caused by a locale database corrupted by user edits. The
locale options at login are derived from that.

Put this patch in:

                }
+::logDebug("locale_options out=" . ::uneval(suppressed));
                $done_something = 1;
        }
 
And see what locale options are produced. If one is lower case, there
is your culprit. Look in the global locale tables until you find it.
