Hello,

strcasecmp and strncasecmp (or stricmp and strnicmp) do not seem to
work correctly in DJGPP V2 beta3. If the two arguments are equal
strings (but with a different case) the function works correctly
(it returns 0).  But otherwise the function seems to perform a
case sensitive compare instead of insensitive as it should.

This was tested with a very small testprogram:

main () { printf ("%d\n", strcasecmp (..., ...)); }

Is this a known bug?
Is this fixed in V2 beta4?

Greetings,
