Subject: grep: -i --color will not color matches when pattern contains uppercase

Package: grep
Version: 2.5.1.ds1-2
Severity: normal

When using the -i option of grep AND any character of the
pattern to match is uppercase, grep will correctly match
BUT will not color them correctly.

To reproduce, compare the output of the following two
commands:
echo 'spam foo SPAM FOO' | grep -i --color spam
echo 'spam foo SPAM FOO' | grep -i --color SPAM
