[New-bugs-announce] [issue17252] Latin Capital Letter I with Dot Above

[Firat Ozgul]

New submission from Firat Ozgul:

lower() method of strings gives different output for 'Latin Capital Letter I with Dot Above' on Python 3.2 and Python 3.3. 

On Python 3.2 (Windows XP):

>>> "\u0130".lower()
'i' #this is correct

On Python 3.3 (Windows XP):

>>> "\u0130".lower()
'i\u0307' #this is wrong

Why is this difference? This breaks code, because 'i' and 'i\u0307' are different letters.
