----------------------------------------
U+FF21 (Ａ, FULLWIDTH LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A) and U+00c0 (À, LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A WITH GRAVE) is @Uppercase_Letter@ so it should be match and return 0 in following case but this returns 1.

<pre>
ruby -e 'puts "\uFF21A".encode("EUC-JP") =~ Regexp.compile("\\\p{Upper}".encode("EUC-JP”))' # => 1
ruby -e 'puts "\u00C0A".encode("EUC-JP") =~ Regexp.compile("\\\p{Upper}".encode("EUC-JP"))’ # => 1
</pre>

This also happens in lower case matching.
<pre>
ruby -e 'puts "\uFF41a".encode("EUC-JP") =~ Regexp.compile("\\\p{Lower}".encode("EUC-JP"))’ ＃=> 1
</pre>

In Unicode encoding it works as follows.
<pre>
ruby -e 'puts "\uFF21A" =~ Regexp.compile("\\\p{Upper}")'  # => 0
</pre>
Looks like EUC-JP @\p{Upper}@ and @\p{Lower}@ regex is limited to ASCII characters.
