No, nobody submitted a patch AFAIR.  There should be a TODO item for
this:

* fix ILIKE and regular expressions to handle case insensitivity
  properly in multibyte encodings

BTW, while looking to see if TODO had anything about this, I noted
the following items that shouldn't be there anymore --- they are
done and pushed out:

    o Add new version of PQescapeString() that doesn't double backslashes
      that are part of a client-only multibyte sequence

      Single-quote is not a valid byte in any supported client-only
      encoding.  This requires using mblen() to determine if the
      backslash is inside or outside a multi-byte sequence.

    o Add new version of PQescapeString() that doesn't double
      backslashes when standard_conforming_strings is true and
      non-E strings are used
