Actually, what probably should be stored is a *normalized* folding-case version of the string, because then (if I understand correctly) memcmp could be used. I don't think memcpy technically works on non-ASCII (unless it's in normalized form).
Actually, what would be compatible with Unicode collation is probably an array of collation elements. This would also make it useful to sort case-insensitively, not just testing for equality.
Details (perhaps too much details): <http://unicode.org/reports/tr10/>
In any case, Phobos doesn't currently handle any of that stuff at all, so my case-insensitive string type wouldn't be taking things backwards in that regard.
