However, that is not a bug. Your first example really is an error. As documented (see the "character classes" section of "info tr"), when translating (i.e., not deleting), if you specify "lower" or "upper" in the second set, you must specify "upper" or "lower" (resp.) in the first set -- and it must be in the same relative position.
