Yes, they are.

Well, the bug was visible with any single-byte locale, so it was visible if
you didn't set LC_CTYPE at all (causing the default "C", i.e. just ASCII,
to be used), or if you set it to e.g. en_US.ISO8859-1 (which I used to
reproduce this), or any other locale we have, really, besides the UTF-8 locale.
