Description:
------------
In other words, it simply ignores case-insensitive replacement when dealing with any letters except Latin. 

Not a single word in the documentation at http://php.net/str_ireplace covers the issue.
And there is no corresponding mb* function. 

Test script:
---------------
echo str_ireplace("б", "1", "111ббб"); // russian letters in UTF-8 encoding

Expected result:
----------------
111111

Actual result:
--------------
111ббб

An actual example is this:

echo str_ireplace("Б", "1", "БББббб"); 
// yelds 111ббб instead of 111111

(It doesn't allow me to edit the bug description so I post it as a comment.)

this is NOT a bug - most of the string funtion don't work for UTF8 at all and be warned about making decisions about strlen() on UTF8 strings

Virtually all of the regular string functions are not for multibyte encodings.

str_ireplace() regards the currently set locale, see <https://3v4l.org/AaXAm>,
but apparently that is not mentioned in the documentation.

Yes. But there is no mb_str_replace().

Yes. That's the very problem. str_replace() works with no explicit LC_ALL setting, but str_ireplace() doesn't. That is rather misleading. I guess this should be mentioned in the docs.
