Subject:	`fixpath' drive letter case
Message-Id:	<Pine.SUN.3.91.961003101526.27330J-100000@is>
Mime-Version:	1.0

`_fixpath' was inconsistent about the letter-case of the drive letter.  
These patches make it always return the drive letter in lower case 
(unless it is one of those 6 Novell drive letters between `Z' and `a').  
Programs which compare pathnames with `strcmp' might break if the case is 
not consistent (one of them is `su' from GNU Sh-utils).
