BTW, NT does have an equivalent to 'strcasecmp':  'stricmp'.  We do the
following in our application, supported on both NT and Solaris:

(for NT)
#ifdef _DLL
#define StrICmp(_p1, _p2)			_stricmp( _p1, _p2)
#else
#define StrICmp(_p1, _p2)			stricmp( _p1, _p2)
#endif

(for Solaris)
#define StrICmp(_p1, _p2)			strcasecmp( _p1, _p2)
