Title:
  find regex does not work properly

Status in findutils package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: findutils

  I would appear to be a similar bug to #58883
  Some have said this isn't a bug at all but here goes.
  When in an empty directory using gnome-terminal:

  user at ubuntukarmic:~/f/Desktop/test$ touch {A..Z}
  user at ubuntukarmic:~/f/Desktop/test$ touch {a..z}
  user at ubuntukarmic:~/f/Desktop/test$ ls
  a  b  c  d  e  f  g  h  i  j  k  l  m  n  o  p  q  r  s  t  u  v  w  x  y  z
  A  B  C  D  E  F  G  H  I  J  K  L  M  N  O  P  Q  R  S  T  U  V  W  X  Y  Z
  user at ubuntukarmic:~/f/Desktop/test$ find . \! -regex '.*[A-Z].*' | sort
  .
  ./a
  user at ubuntukarmic:~/f/Desktop/test$ env | grep -i lang
  LANG=en_US.UTF-8
  GDM_LANG=en_US.UTF-8
  user at ubuntukarmic:~/f/Desktop/test$ LANG=C
