Thank you!

Well, please look at this. I typed two lines of input.
The first line with ABC
the second line with ÖÄÜ

Expected result:
abc
öäü

Here is what we get:

LD_PRELOAD=./libc.so.1 ./tr  '[:upper:]' '[:lower:]'
ABC
abc
ÖÄÜ
ÖÄÜ

It seems to have the same problem as ast-tr


As an orientation:

/usr/bin/tr  '[:upper:]' '[:lower:]'                           
ABC
abc
ÖÄÜ
öäü

/usr/xpg4/bin/tr  '[:upper:]' '[:lower:]'
ABC
abc
ÖÄÜ
öäü

/usr/xpg6/bin/tr  '[:upper:]' '[:lower:]'
ABC
abc
ÖÄÜ
öäü
