This bug report will be sent to the Free Software Foundation,
not to your local site managers!
Please write in English if possible, because the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators to read other languages for them.

Your bug report will be posted to the bug-gnu-emacs <at> gnu.org mailing list,
and to the gnu.emacs.bug news group.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug.  If you can, give
a recipe starting from `emacs -Q':


----------- bug ?? or feature ?? ----------------------

Hello from France !

I have been using emacs for decades and in a previous version emacs 22
the function capitalize word used to work properly with the European
character set ISO-8859-1

For example
capitalize word on éèçàù used to supply Éèçàù
upcase word on éèçàù used to supply ÉÈÇÀÙ

Now under emacs 23.2.1 the same action does not seem to work, only
the ASCII-7-bit set is properly capitalized or up-cased.
