Hi,

There is a quite nasty bug in tr(1) when using
de_DE.ISO8859-1(5) locale.

Try this please:
unsetenv LC_ALL
setenv LANG de_DE.ISO8859-1
echo v | tr a-z A-Z

I'm getting "W" as result. Shouldn't it be "V"?

Produced on (probably more versions affected):
FreeBSD 6.0-STABLE #0: Thu Jan 19 01:07:01 CET 2006

Martin
