Issue:Ignorecase=yes broken in MediaWiki 1.17.0

Description:	ignorecase=true causes DPL to report "WARNING: No results"
Extension / Version:	DPL   /   1.8.9
Type / Status:	Bug   /   open

Problem

Try your Test ignorecase example on MediaWiki 1.17.0. The first test (without ignorecase) produces correct results. The second test (with ignorecase=yes) produces Extension:DynamicPageList (DPL), version 1.8.9 : WARNING: No results.

Thanks for finding this bug!

But I really have no idea what is wrong ...

To me the SQL query looks o.k. - but it does not deliver any results ... This is the version without ignorecase:

SELECT DISTINCT `page`.page_namespace as page_namespace,`page`.page_title as page_title,`page`.page_id as page_id,
pl.pl_title as sel_title, pl.pl_namespace as sel_ns, `page`.page_title as sortkey FROM `pagelinks` as pl, `page`
WHERE 1=1 AND `page`.page_is_redirect=0 AND `page`.page_id=pl.pl_from AND ( (pl.pl_namespace=0 AND
pl.pl_title LIKE 'Abc')) ORDER BY page_title ASC LIMIT 0, 500

And here the version with ignorecase=yes: Do you have an idea what could be wrong with the "LOWER" statements?

SELECT DISTINCT `page`.page_namespace as page_namespace,`page`.page_title as page_title,`page`.page_id as page_id,
pl.pl_title as sel_title, pl.pl_namespace as sel_ns, `page`.page_title as sortkey FROM `pagelinks` as pl, `page`
WHERE 1=1 AND `page`.page_is_redirect=0 AND `page`.page_id=pl.pl_from AND ( (pl.pl_namespace=0 AND
LOWER(pl.pl_title) LIKE LOWER('Abc'))) ORDER BY page_title ASC LIMIT 0, 500
