Bash Version: 4.3
Patch Level: 11
Release Status: release

Description:

In the enclosed example ( based on 
http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/303166/doesnt-work-the-bash-script-to-check-given-single-character-is-in-lower-case-or
 ), bash always echos Lowercase, whereas all dash, zsh, and ksh echo 
Lowecase/Uppercase pairs as expected.

Repeat-By:
    uplow:

        read d
        case $d in
            [a-z]) echo "Character is in Lowercase";;
            [A-Z]) echo "Character is in Uppercase";;
        esac
    
    test:
        for sh in bash dash ksh zsh; do echo $sh; $sh uplow <<<x; $sh uplow<<<X 
; echo ; done
