Sorry, I should have mentioned.

It is en_GB with ISO-8859-1. 

This condition evaluates to true so testing isalpha() may not be
entirely the right way. It probably comes before D in any collation
sequence resulting in it ascending.
[[ Ä = [[:alpha:]] ]]

Might be worth looking at how Perl handles these ranges.
