Nick, i am processing text in German. Uppper characters from the iso-8859-1 character set are used and never caused a problem.
You should have a look at your variable settings; make myisam_sort_buffer_size as large as you can afford and set myisam_max_extra_sort_file_size and myisam_max_sort_file_size to a size appropriate for the size of your table. Double check that you have enough disk space. In my case I could reduce the time needed to create a fulltext index from 18 hrs to a few minutes.
