+Gnulib module: strcase

+Portability problems fixed by Gnulib:
+@itemize
+@item
+This function is missing on some platforms:
+MSVC 9.

+Portability problems not fixed by Gnulib:
+@itemize
+@item
+This function cannot work correctly on character strings in multibyte locales.
+Gnulib provides alternative functions @code{mbsncasecmp} and @code{mbspcasecmp}
+that do a case insensitive comparison of character strings and that work in all
+locales.
