+1 but please change the description:

"Converts string to uppercase
The function converts all Latin characters (A-Z, but no accents, etc) to 
uppercase. It is safe for all supported character sets (incl. utf-8). 
Unlike strtoupper() it does not honour the locale."

And the same for strtolower.

BTW, if strtupper wouldn't honour the locale then it couldn't transform 
ä to Ä for German, etc.
