R. David Murray added the comment:

I thought this would just be a difference in the unicode database, but that 
appears not to be the case.  Ezio, this is related to the infamous Turkic 
dotless lower case i problem (see, eg, 
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-bugs-list/2005-October/030686.html).

The SpecialCasing.txt file entries for these characters seems to be the same in 
6.0.0 (3.2) and 6.1.0 (3.3).  So the question is, why did the Python behavior 
change, and is it indeed a bug?  What python3.3 is returning is the canonical 
version, which would seem to be correct.  Have we been buggy up to this point 
and something got fixed?

And, referencing that thread above, how does one do a locale dependent lower 
case?
