As already indicated above, you may also consider to roll your own 
utf8-aware downcase method.

class String

   def downcase_utf8

      gsub(/./mu) do |char|

         case char
            when /\320\237/u then "\320\277"
            when /\320\240/u then "\321\200"
            when /\320\230/u then "\320\270"
            when /\320\222/u then "\320\262"
            when /\320\225/u then "\320\265"
            when /\320\242/u then "\321\202"
         else
            char
         end

      end  # gsub
  end
end


Cheers,

J.K.
