I don't know.  Are you using --lower-case? If so, don't :)

If you are not, then it must be something to do with mapsource unless
I'm missing something.

The --lower-case option was added just to show that it doesn't work!
As such no work has been done on it to deal with different character
sets and I have no idea what will happen in any particular case
without looking at the code.
