Parameter -i does not work with capital Ø #594

I find this behaviour a bit strange:

This is ok: $ echo 'abCØ' | ack -i c abCØ

This fails: $ echo 'abCØ' | ack -i ø

This is ok: $ echo 'abCØ' | grep -i ø abCØ

$ ack --version ack 2.14 Running under Perl 5.18.2 at /usr/bin/perl

$ grep --version grep (BSD grep) 2.5.1-FreeBSD

Running on OX X 10.11.3 GNU bash, version 4.3.42(1)-release (x86_64-apple-darwin15.0.0) My terminal supports UTF-8, by the way

@geirmyk Thanks for reporting! Sorry, but ack doesn't really support Unicode; see #437 and #484, the latter of which has a workaround.
