Built from http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/grep/grep-2.5.1.tar.gz

$ echo $LANG
en_GB.UTF-8
$ ./grep -V | head -n 1
grep (GNU grep) 2.5.1
$ echo 'oOo' | ./grep -i 'o*'
oOo
$ LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 echo 'oOo' | LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 ./grep -i 'o*'
oOo
$ LANG=en_US.UTF-8 echo 'oOo' | LANG=en_US.UTF-8 ./grep -i 'o*'
oOo

Cannot reproduce in matching version.

$ echo $LANG
en_GB.UTF-8
$ /bin/grep -V | head -n 1
GNU grep 2.5.3
$ echo 'oOo' | /bin/grep -i 'o*'
oOo
$ LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 echo 'oOo' | LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8 /bin/grep -i 'o*'
oOo

Cannot reproduce in the latest version of grep. Will build 2.5.1 later and test.
