Here is a little test program that checks this:

use POSIX;
use locale;

print "Current LC_CTYPE locale is ", setlocale(LC_CTYPE), "\n";
$string = 'MÜLLER';
$target = 'müller';

print $string =~ /$target/i ? 'YES' : 'No';
print "\n";

setlocale(LC_CTYPE, 'de_DE');
print "Current LC_CTYPE locale is ", setlocale(LC_CTYPE), "\n";

print $string =~ /$target/i ? 'YES' : 'No';
print "\n";


Works here. Try setting LC_CTYPE to the proper locale before
running MV.
