Thanks for your help Ludwig. That definitely makes sense and matches
exactly the behavior I am seeing.

Subject: [389-users] Re: Attempting to make memberUID searches case
insensitive
yes, the index was created, but an index is always only a means to
improve
performance of a specific operation, not a functional part.
if you have an attribute with a specific syntax and a default
matching rule
you can use anotehr one, but you need to tell the server which matching rule
to use in the search filter. Otherwise teh default on ewill be used. On
extra index can speed up the use of an alternative MR.
so the search filter shoud look somehow like:
"(memberuid:<mr-oid>:=c12345)"
