For c, I expected exactly the current behavior, since I knew it worked
like this for years, but I never used C, and so I didn't care.
For just upper casing the first character, I would have used lt (plus
some extra logic to avoid duplicates in case l and c had been tried
before...).
If the c and C implementations change, this change should be documented.
